The majority of people that get a MRSA infection get it from long term care facilities, kidney dialysis, injecting illegal drugs, or have had a recent surgery. Symptoms include red bumps that resemble pimples on the skin that eventually become large boils that reach deep into the skin.
The Sahel (/sÉËhÉl/) is the ecoclimatic and biogeographic zone of transition in Africa between the Sahara Desert to the north and the Sudanian Savanna to the south. Having a semi-arid climate, it stretches across the south-central latitudes of Northern Africa between the Atlantic Ocean and the Red Sea.
Sahelanthropus tchadensis is a fossil hominid. From evidence at the fossil site in Chad in the African Sahel, it is thought to have lived about 7 million years ago. The split of the line into humans and chimpanzees probably happened between 6.3 and 5.4 million years ago. This can be seen from genetic data. Because the fossil is older than this spilt, its status is unclear. The first fossil found is known as ToumaÃ¯ today.
