Hi.
This should more than suffice. MRSA comes to those who have a poor immunity, also there are different grades of MRSA. In healthier individuals, it only causes a mild skin infection which in most cases does not even require treatment. Only in those who have a poor immunity does it manifest into something more serious. So all you need to do is take good care of your hygiene, and maintain your health.
Best wishes.
