I saw this article in weed world. Its interesting stuff. Anything that helps MRSA should be considered at the very least. I think theres some medical people on here, be interesting to hear there point of view on this.

The general thought these days is that the mechanical action of hand washing is more important that whatever soap or disinfectant is used. Any patient who is on contact isolation requires us to glove and gown when entering the room, with hand washing before and after. Even for patients not on isolation, we glove up before touching them, and of course wash those hands. A big problem is visitors who do not follow these guidelines.
We do have a word for hospital employees who are sloppy in adhering to these practices. We call them "doctors."

I have maximum respect for the medical community, long hours, crap pay and they suddenly become a target for those wanting to sue. More so in the US than here.
I pass my doobie to a doctor or nurse anyday.
