The secret to fighting antibiotic resistant bacteria is not hand soap! It is now alcohol based skin wipes says Kleritec, one of the largest suppliers of antimicrobial products for the athletic and fitness industry. Recently, Kleritec announced the formation of an Infection Prevention Team due to the rising concern with overuse of antibacterial hand soaps in conjunction with the concerning increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria.

2. Total Infection Control
For athletic programs, and for daycare and convalescent centers
According to the Center For Disease Control (CDC) MRSA is an antibiotic
resistant type of staph infection that is now responsible for more US deaths
than AIDS. It is contracted by contact with infected surfaces. (2008) MRSA
CAN KILL!!
Athletes are some of the people who are most at risk for MRSA infections.
MRSA is most common in high physical contact sports such as wrestling,
football, and rugby. However, MRSA infections are being reported in
soccer, basketball, volleyball, base-ball, field hockey, and martial arts
among others. MRSA infections also take place before and after
participation in sports in locker rooms, weight rooms and artificial turfs.

4. The CDC states that good personal hygiene
will protect against the MRSA virus. Athletes
who do not use proper protocol can easily
transfer the MRSA virus to other players!
Famous athletics who have contracted the
MRSA virus include, Payton Manning, Kennen
Winslow Jr, Kenny George, recently even 6
Cleveland Browns Players etc.

6. Stop the spread of infections now
Children and the elderly are some of the people who are most at
risk for MRSA infections. MRSA is common in daycare settings
because of high physical contact between children in the
classroom. MRSA infections are passed from person to person or
through contact with contaminated items such as toys,
playground equipment, food tables, or carpeting. MRSA infections
also take place before and after participation in sports or outdoor
games.
