m. pina, MD?writes "I didn't understand wether you are talking about a health care worker who
may be colonized by MRSA or about an patient/mother.
MRSA (methycilin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) is quite benign for healthy
people but quite agressive in ill people. . ."

Sorry for any confusion. This is a patient who has been readmitted to the hospital with the infection on her arm. She has been told to pump and dump and not hold her baby because she has MRSA spores all over her body and this would put the baby in danger.
