But as Jim admitted there is no drug that could cure his father's MRSA
(methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus). It had to be left to
nature
to take its course with some nursing care (soap and water and
bandages).

Jim did no such thing I might not have made it clear.. Jims father was
too
weak for the drugs but didn't need them anyway because the bacteria were
taken out with an antiseptic wash (which will contain bacterialcides)
and
soap and water. The drugs were offered but he couldn't handle them

What drugs?

Here they said soap and water, that is a few years ago. Plus everyone
going near the infected people had to wear protective gear.

I don't know. They tried him on the standard antiboitics for dealing with
MRSA but after two days they had to take them off him because his appetitie
had totally gone and he was being permenantly sick.

As I said 3 to 14% of hospital admissions result from prescribed drug
adverse effects.

So they switched to the
antiseptic wash

Which they probably use anyway, linezolid or not?

I suppose they will claim linezolid is no worse than any other, but it is
better to have more in the arsenal isn't it? Then say do genetic testing
and do not prescribe by trial and error. Try not to eliminate your choices
by feeding everybody with GM antibiotic resistance genes, especially when
we know that DNA is not fully deactivated by digestion, and is also
getting to the unborn.
