It's neither - it's an infection that's developed over the years in response to antibiotics, so that can't be killed by most antibiotics - and it's so widespread at this point that you can get it anywhere. The most common outbreaks have been in pro locker rooms - and hospitals, which I wouldn't call dirty or grimy. It's just that if someone has it, they can spread it...and like I said in my earlier post, my wife got it when she went to the hospital after a car accident. There are estimates that at this point, half the people (doctors, nurses, aides, etc) who work in hospitals are carrying MRSA even if they don't have an active infection.
