MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is primarily spread through direct skin-to-skin contact or by touching contaminated surfaces. Simply entering a house where someone has MRSA does not pose a significant risk, as the bacteria typically requires close contact or open wounds to infect someone. However, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands frequently and avoiding touching surfaces with open cuts, can further reduce any potential risk.
