Is everyone also aware that locker rooms are also a high-risk area for MRSA? - Some of the "worst cases" have been with football teams: MRSA in Locker Rooms

I for one was pleased that Dr. Throckmorton made the precient observation that it is the behaviour, not the group, that places people at risk in some circumstances. There was a knee jerk reaction to the original announcement about MRSA incidence in gay men in which many did not draw the appropriate conclusion that many sexual behaviours would present a risk of infection. I particularly liked the reference to Spring Break and Mardi Gras where so much alcohol lubricated disinhibition can lead to long term suffering and tragedy.

David,

Thank you for this clarity in #83267 – so often what we know to be right is confused or clouded with rhetoric instead of proper discernment.

I think we are called to judge, where good judgement is called for.

I think we are called to condemn…although not as often as we do.

I think we are called upon to discriminate, not in the political sense, but in the evaluative process.

War both causes disease and is itself a symptom of a highly contagious disease.
