An Oshawa man is claiming he contracted an antibiotic-resistant staph infection (MRSA) from Thermea Spa in Whitby, Ont.
An Oshawa man is claiming he contracted an antibiotic-resistant staph infection from Thermea Spa in Whitby, Ont, months after an outbreak was reported at one of the facility's saltwater pools.
“My knee was the size of a baseball,” Samad told CP24. “By March 20, it was bleeding a lot, and the pain wouldn’t go away.” While Samad’s injuries have lessened in the weeks since his initial treatment for the injury, he feels it’s important to get the word out about what happened to him. In a statement to CP24, Groupe Nordik said they have tried to reach Samad “to gather more details” about his situation but have not heard back. Samad is being represented by Linden as part of the ongoing lawsuit but did not separately make the spa aware of his infection. The source of the infection remains unknown.
