The Catalyst for Change
FACT: More Americans die every year from invasive MRSA infections than from HIV/AIDS or H1N1 flu.
What is MRSA?
MRSA (pronounced meer-sa) is an acronym for methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus – also known as the “Superbug” and can cause deadly infections in patients in healthcare facilities and in the community.
MRSA Survivors Network was founded in early 2003. MSN was the first consumer organization in the U.S. to raise the alarm concerning the MRSA epidemic and other multi-drug resistant healthcare-acquired infections. MSN has been the key catalyst for change on an international and national front with its groundbreaking crusade and mission to stop MRSA deaths and infections. MSN partners with healthcare professionals, healthcare companies and consumer organizations.
The 4th Annual World MRSA Day Kickoff Event will be held Sept. 29, 2012 at the Hilton Garden Inn Chicago/Oak Brook. Dr. William R.

Int’l MRSA Testing Week is a new global awareness campaign launched by MRSA Survivors Network. It is an annual designated observance for active detection (screening) or MRSA colonization of high risk patients entering healthcare facilities. The global awareness week draws attention for the need also for healthcare and community facilities to clean and decontaminate the environment and to increase surveillance and testing for MRSA in livestock worldwide.
