First off, the washing soda modifies the pH to an alkaline solution which MRSA find it difficult to grow, the magnesium chloride is the antibiotic components which kills the MRSA, while the iodine solution (I prefer 3% hydroiodic acid, or colorless of sodium iodide and/or potassium iodide) prevents MRSA from attaching your skin cells. When this is rubbed on to a reddish skin for a couple of times this problem almost disappears entirely. It should be noted that MRSA may survive in laundry clothes after laundering and may further reinfection, especially coat jackets (winter clothes), which DO NOT often get laundered. Even some people DON'T even launder their sweaters for months! I used to live in a poor Puerto Rican neighborhood and this is how infections get spread. The issue appears to be proper laundering REQUIRES that Epsom Salt (magnesium sulfate), Magnesium chloride, or Magnesium hydroxide be mixed into the detergent, or at least be soaked for a couple of hours BEFORE laundering, at the very least. While washing soda, and iodine are helpful, it is not absolutely needed unless you have complete supplies or your budget is bigger than mine. Colorless iodine is what I prefer and can take the form of potassium iodide and sodium iodide, since it won't cause staining issues.
So let us go back to basic, and for the babies red skin you mentioned. Sometimes a solution of colorless iodine (they don't cause staining), can be applied 3-4 times thinly every 5-10 minutes and rubbed off with cotton swab might do. At least it worked for me. Other solutions are possible, such as washing soda 5%, plus 10% magnesium chloride, and some iodine (1%) can be rubbed on with cotton swab. The effect of rubbing allows the MRSA to lossen its grip from the skin and at the same time killing them. It is a well known fact in even with doctors that if the frequency of application is done to keep the solution on the skin long enough, they die off within a day, almost completely. In my own case I applied every 15 minutes for a couple of times during the 6 hours period enough to kill at least most of them.
The issue about the feet and gloves is that shoes, gloves, garments that never was considered for laundry are also places where MRSA resides for reinfection. In which case you need the same solution to clean the insides of shoes, socks, gloves, and jacket. Those are the source of reinfection that should be considered the same way as people with fungus problems. Sometimes they even exists on the carpets, and on the floor. YOu will know. Certain areas of the floor they reside and the skin gets "rashes" almost within minutes after coming into contact.
