Just a slight correction, MRSA is bacterial. Normally our bodies can fight most viruses naturally but with bacterial infections we need the help of antibiotics. MRSA is resistant to most antibiotics so there lies the problem. MRSA is spread by contact therefore if equipment is brought to the workshop without proper decontamination there is a risk to ebme staff. Ensuring that all equipment is accompanied by proper decontamination status documentation is important, although this does not take into account people who complete the form without actually cleaning the equipment!
