I always thought this was a tropical infection, but according to wikipedia, though very rare, you can get it from anywhere? This shit scares me. So even a paper cut?
Quote : | "How Do You Catch Flesh Eating Disease? There are several different ways in which an individual can become infected with the bacteria responsible for an outbreak of flesh eating disease. The one unifying feature between all the different ways the disease can be caught is that they all involve a breakage in the skin's surface. This break in the skin can be caused by trauma, surgery or even by something as slight as a pinprick or a minor abrasion. Once the skin is broken, however, the infection begins when the bacteria responsible for the flesh eating disease contaminate the site of the broken skin." |
