Flesh Eating Bacteria

 It looks like Florida has a new surprise in store for visitors.  Flesh-eating bacteria are on the rise.  This is at a time when waterways are cooling down.  I suppose it doesn't help when Tallahassee allows companies to discharge wastewater into our rivers and oceans.  If you come here, be careful.  Do not go into water with cuts or scratches.  If your skin starts to turn red or fevers begin to occur, go to the hospital.  It happened to my daughter.  She had a break in her skin.  She thought the salt water would help it.  It did not.  She ended up in the hospital.  This is the second time this has happened to her.  The first time was a freshwater swimming area.  Stick to chlorinated pools.
