I disagree with this. Bactroban ointment is the best there is out
there. It should be used on wounds and not used as a prevention unless
you are doing a decolonization(a period of a certain about of times
like 7-10 days usually done only once). One its out of your system
just try not to cut your skin...and don't pick your nose. You can
recover and hopefully not have a problem.

Also I don't think alcohol kills MRSA...alcohol can irritate your skin
so bad and create sores. It's like burning your skin.

just my 2 cents
