Staphylococcus Aureus is a common bacteria that is ubiquitous (found everywhere) in nature and is present naturally on the human skin and mucosal surfaces. About 20% of the population are long-term carriers Staph Aureus is usually harmless and only in people who have a weak immune system ie HIV, chronic illness does staphylococcus become a problem as the body is usually able to prevent these bacteria from causing serious ill health. Staph can also invade broken skin or wounds and is the most common cause of abscesses. It is the organism that gives pus its yellow colour hence the name "Aureus" which means golden To come back to your question, Staphylococcus is not "caught" through sexual intercourse though, do you mean " Gonococcous" the bacterium that causes Gonorrhea? |
