Guidelines Help To Prevent Skin Infections In Athletes

Skin Infections

Minnesota Department of Health released a set of educational materials for athletes, coaches, health care providers and others on skin infections and how they can be prevented. The guidance was developed in response to increased infections, including resistant staphylococcal infections and herpes, reported among athletes in recent years.

Maybe a garlic based body shampoo despensed in the shower rooms for that clean fresh all day scent. And we could start a new Basil based antideodorant and antiperspirant.

If they had a garlic based shampoo/body wash, would that help keep away vampires too??

Might attract girls.

Girls who don't like to cook that is.

Home Economic JOCKS. Interesting.

Seriously though. Instead of requiring food handlers to get a public health card down at city hall, we should make it part of required high school curriculum for all graduating students. Or at least an elective like tennis or drivers ed.
