Answer:

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA).

Step-by-step explanation:

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) is a type of disease-causing bacteria that cannot be treated with many common antibiotics. This disease-causing bacteria (MRSA) can spread rapidly through a hospital in several ways such as patients having open wounds or using catheters. Also, patients that are having a weak immune system and visits nursing homes, prisons, biometric centers are at a greater risk of contracting this rapidly spreading disease-causing bacteria.

Basically, 3 days after an individual becomes expose to Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) it attacks the person's tissue and as such becoming highly resistant to treatment using common antibiotics.
