Antibiotic resistant bacteria (organisms such as Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus [MRSA] or Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci [VRE]) are resistant to, and cannot be destroyed by, many of the antibiotics commonly used to treat infections. Antibiotic resistant germs (bacteria, organism) may live in the nose or in the bowels of health people.
