      MRSA can live on non-host surfaces for days, weeks, months depending on
      the environmental circumstances. These circumstances can include what
      other interactions the MRSA may be in contact with such as other
      bacteria in which that it may compete against / with thus killing MRSA
      or cultivating / transferring the bacteria. Most studies suggest / show
      that MRSA can live up to 90 days / 3 months. Again there are many different variables that can interact with the life of the germ if you will.
