Golden Staph

Golden Staph, or Staphylococcus aureus, is a type of bacteria commonly found on the skin and in the noses of healthy people. While it can be harmless, it can also cause infections, especially if it enters the body through cuts or wounds. Some strains are resistant to antibiotics, leading to more severe infections that can be difficult to treat. It's important to practice good hygiene, like washing hands regularly and keeping wounds clean, to reduce the risk of Golden Staph infections. In healthcare settings, extra precautions are often taken to prevent its spread.
