The biggest hoax that I have experienced in the history of Nigerian medicine is Staph.

As a well meaning Nigerian, I therefore felt compelled to try to shed some light on staph.

First things first. . . Staphylococcus is a bacteria that is normally present on human skin. It helps to protect us from other bacteria/fungi.

Don't get me wrong. Staph can cause infections.

But what happens is that everything that happens to anybody is blamed on staph But we all have staph So, how can this make sense.

It is like accusing the devil of any bad thing that happens in the world. Sometimes, it is the devil, but most of the time, we actually did it!!!
