MRSA in non CF sibling....

Aidan, our child with CF, cultured MRSA a few times recently. He just had one clean culture after two weeks of Zyvox. We decided to test the family members to see if there were any carriers. So far, my son (19 months old, NO CF) has MRSA as well! I don't get it? We are treating him with Bactroban and Phisohex baths. I am going to make an appt with infectious disease at CHOP. Any insight?
