With antibiotics for MRSA how long are you contagious?

Individuals with a MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) infection are generally considered contagious until the infection is fully treated and lesions are healed. While antibiotics can help clear the infection, the duration of contagiousness varies based on the individual's response to treatment and the nature of the infection. It's important to follow medical advice and keep wounds covered to reduce the risk of transmission, as well as to maintain good hygiene practices. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific guidance.
