Staphylococci are gram positive bacteria that "reside" in our skin and in our body; "reside" meaning normal microflora. There are pathogenic species of staphylococci present in our body. It is a complex process during infection. There are certain factors that you need to consider-immune response, type of species/strain that infected you, etc.
One of the recent concerns in public health is the emergence of multi-drug resistant bacteria. Most popular, I think, is the Methycillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Infection with these strains of bacteria is serious and sometimes lethal.
Staphylococcal bacteria?
It will give you staph. Depending on how healthy you are, if you infected by this bacteria, it could take days to get you really really sick.
Reply:what are you trying to ask?
The pathogenesis, the virulence, the people who work on it, or the non-pathogenic strain?
Please define your question.
