CA-MRSA: natural or enginereed?
Staph germ undermines body’s defenses
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer 1 hour, 1 minute ago
WASHINGTON – The aggressive antibiotic-resistant staph infection responsible for thousands of recent illnesses undermines the body’s defenses by causing germ-fighting cells to explode, researchers reported
An estimated 90,000 people in the United States fall ill each year from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA. It is not clear how many die from the infection; one estimate put it at more than 18,000, which would be slightly higher than U.S. deaths from AIDS.
The infection long has been associated with health care facilities, where it attacks people with reduced immune systems. But many recent cases involve an aggressive strain, community-associated MRSA, or CA-MRSA. It can cause severe infections and even death in otherwise healthy people outside of health care settings.
The CA-MRSA strain secretes a kind of peptide — a compound formed by amino acids — that causes immune cells called neutrophils to burst, eliminating a main defense against infection, according to researchers.

First of all, this is the first time I ever heard of a bacteria actually killing white blood cells. There are bacteria that can’t get digested by neutrophils, such as Francisella tularensis that causes rabbit fever. The neutrophils engulf the bacteria, but they can’t digest it because it inhibits the digestive mechanisms. The bacteria is able to escape but it does not damage the neutrophil.
So I looked more into it and found out that for a long time they thought a certain toxin, PVL killed the WBC’s, but as you can see from the Science Daily article link, that is not the case.
Then I ran into an article by Allan and Harold Rubin where they wrote about how 11 researchers at the Rockefeller (ring ring ring) University in NY City studied the genetic mutations of the MRSA bacteria in a patient that was there for 12 weeks. Here’s the punch line:
“At the time of the patient’s admission to the hospital he was already infected with the staph infection, but it was treatable at that time. Every time the patient took his medicine the antibiotics killed the weakest bacteria in his bloodstream, but those bacteria that survived passed on their traits to the next generation of bacteria in the patient’s body.
These resistant microbes accumulated 35 mutations, with each one altering a molecular sensor or production of a protein. Researchers than matched these gradual genetic changes to increasing levels of drug resistance.”
What the fuck. You’re telling me this bacteria mutated 35 times in 12 weeks?!? Are they trying to say antibiotics do this? And they expect me to believe this is something natural and NOT man-made???
If bacteria mutated this fast the human race, as well as probably the rest of the multicellular creatures on this earth would be long gone. Hell, if anything mutated this fast, we would already be living the NWO’s dream of the elite super-humans.
Why is nobody questioning this? Why aren’t these so-called researchers out screaming in the streets? This feels like something right out of a science fiction book.
Oh and by the way, regular MRSA tends to cause mostly respiratory infections. They usually don’t last much outside the hosts. CA-MRSA causes skin and tissue infections and can live outside the body for weeks.

Hospital-Acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA) and Community-Acquired MRSA (CA-MRSA) are different, however, CAMRSA is not an “aggressive strain” as the Associated Press writer suggested. Both are just as deadly if left untreated, as my g/f in Daytona Beach died from HA-MRSA in under 4 weeks. She had broken her ankle and was pinned and cast at the hospital. within a week her leg was swelled over the top of the cast. After removing the cast, scraping the tissue, scraping the bone (having no effect) leading to amputation of the leg and eventually dying in a hyperbaric chamber, total time from onset of infection to death 4 weeks. She fell into a coma 2 weeks after the infection took hold and was in a coma when she died. I am not sure how the AP writer qualifies CA-MRSA as agressive, but HA-MRSA is FAR more agressive by comparison. I’m not sure what “regular MRSA” is in this post, but I only know of the four kinds of MRSA and HA-MRSA is not mostly respiratory in nature because HA-MRSA by definition is due to having visited a Hospital and/or had a surgical procedure. (see article http://microbiology.suite101.com/article.cfm/mrsa__camrsa_and_hamrsa) Also HA-MRSA is usually a direct result of hand to wound contact (ungloved or unsanitized hand/instrument).

The Medscape article you provided was very good. Thank you for that. Now that you have told me your girlfriend’s story, I think both strains can be equally aggressive. The hospital is a shitty place to be even when you’re sick enough to be there. You’re not moving around as much, you’re not breathing as well, you sit in bed all day. Your immune system gets weakened, especially when your body is trying to heal itself from the surgery. CA-MRSA has been infecting healthy people, with good immune systems. From what I’ve learned, it doesn’t appear that HA-MRSA is CA-MRSA that got loose from the hospitals. But it had to come from somewhere. All of these MRSA’s (including the “regular” respiratory infection, sorry for not clearing that up) are being blamed on overuse of antibiotics. To tell you the truth, I don’t see how this bacteria is able to evolve and mutate so fast, like the third reference I used says.
In the end, here’s my question. Bacteria has been existing on Earth for longer than we have. Some are good, some are bad. Our bodies have learned to either kill them or live with them. MRSA, in whatever form it is, is still a bacteria. Yet, it has been killing off not just babies and elderly (the ones with lower immune systems) but grown adults with no other health problems. Regardless how resistant it is to antibiotics, your body should still be able to kill it off. But it can’t. So they’re saying CA-MRSA produces something that kills of neutrophils. That’s not something that can be caused by overuse of antibiotics.
So here’s my two theories on this. I apologize for not posting any links to this stuff, but I’m getting ready to leave. I’ll make a blog about this later.
1. This bacteria and all the other “resistant” bacterias and viruses are genetically engineered to do that. This opens up a big can of worms. But then again, that’s what the Georgia Guidestones is all about.
2. Our immune systems are weaker and getting progressively weaker than what they were 100 years ago, 200, etc., and they can’t fight off these bacterias and viruses. Our bodies are being daily bombarded from the stuff in chemtrails, the pesticides on and in our foods, the actual ingredients in the foods that are nothing but crap, the chemicals in the water, the crap in our toys, etc. Our bodies are constantly fighting all of these things and that’s overloading our immune systems so much that we end up dying from the cold, just like AIDS patients. Then again, some people say AIDS is a genetically engineered bio-weapon.

Mans claims colloidal silver cured his MRSA infection…
http://www.northantset.co.uk/675/Man39s-MRSA-cure-claims.941888.jp
An elderly man who lived with a potentially lethal infection for two years claims he has cleared himself of the illness with colloidal silver.
David Sharman, 82, was infected with superbug MRSA in June, 2001, but believes determination and a regular dose of colloidal silver has helped him beat the infection.
He said: “There are so many terrible stories about MRSA in the news, but people seem to just talk about it and are not doing anything.
“I started to use colloidal silver and, after almost two years living with the infection and having regular check-ups, I was told I was clear.”
Mr Sharman, of Exmouth Avenue, Corby, claims he contracted MRSA after a series of hip operations at Kettering General Hospital during 2001.
He said: “The wound on my hip became infected and the hospital informed me that I had MRSA before I was discharged for rehabilitation.
“I was determined to help myself and began using colloidal silver directly on my wound daily.”
Colloidal silver is a liquid commonly used before the 1930s as an antibiotic treatment and is available at health food shops.
It works by attaching itself to a vital enzyme found in bacteria and disabling the offending pathogen, preventing it from reproducing.
Mr Sharman, who has three children Richard, 22, William, 20, and Sarah, 18, with wife Denise, said: “I could feel myself slowly getting better and the day I got the all-clear, just before Christmas 2003, was an extremely happy day for the whole family.
“Getting MRSA doesn’t have to mean it is the end of the road and I really believe colloidal silver helped me.”
Dr Richard Slack is a microbiologist based in Nottingham who works in infection control.
He said: “The silver is quite a good antibiotic used in burns units because it does kill MRSA and other bacteria that cause wound infections.
“There is absolutely a possibility that this has been beneficial to Mr Sharman.”

I agree with you on the silver for a few reasons. If you’ll read my post, A lighthouse in an ocean of darkness, you’ll see my stance on silver. I’ve been trying out Silver Biotics products for a few weeks and researched them a bit. Colloidal silver solutions, depending on the manufacturer, can have really high doses of silver, which, if taken for a long time, can cause argyria. The Silver Biotics solution contains charged silver particles, smaller than colloidal, and at only 10ppm/teaspoon. I guess there’s a couple hospitals using a 32ppm solution as a hand disinfectant, rather than alcohol.
I’m still researching this, so I can’t say “Yes, it works for sure.” I don’t know if orally ingested silver passes into the bloodstream or stays in the digestive tract. Using silver products on wounds would be beneficial, since it has antiseptic properties.
Thanks for your comment.

There is now a web site documenting four new studies proving that colloidal silver is the best all-around treatment for MRSA. See http://www.ColloidalSilverCuresMRSA.com
