The Northville Public School District has seen five cases of MRSA since the start of the school year with three this month.

This is one too many for local businessman Gary Martin, who wants to help the district prevent any more issues.

Martin’s company, the Martin Midwest Group, LLC, is a manufacturer’s representative with specialties in healthcare, industrial, janitorial and safety products. It’s located in downtown Northville.

He went before the Northville Board of Education on Nov. 12 to voice his concerns and offer some help.

“MRSA is more easily transferred than the common cold and is more violent,” he said to the school board. “This handicaps people and kills people…this is something that is going to grow worse in our society.”

The most recent case was reported to NPS on Nov. 19 and it involves another high school student. The district said this case is not related to previously reported cases.
