Blog Goals

I'm planning to do some armchair activism.

I got a computer, an education and an interest in health. I've always wanted to pick a topic and do something about it. I finally picked antibiotic resistance.

The title of the blog refers to Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus. I wish it were a sad, downtrodden bacteria.

Goal #1
Assist in community building. I'm good at helping create links on the internet among people with a special interest.

Goal #2
Help disseminate information about antibiotic resistance. I plan to parrot things said by reputable organizations like the CDC.

Goal #3
Prevent the apocalypse. The loss of all antibiotics would shorten the life span of all my kids, grandkids and so on by 10 years.

My Twitter handle is @sadmrsa and I'll be posting here anything that doesn't fit there.
