Antibiotics are working. Getting outta the hospital tomorrow morning!— The Diamond (@DustinPoirier) December 6, 2022

“Antibiotics are working. Getting outta the hospital tomorrow morning!”
Staph infection, medically known as staphylococcus is very common among fighters. It is very contagious and requires the treatment of a medical professional and antibiotics. Poirier had described his case as “serious,” but fortunately, things have taken a turn for the better and there will hopefully not be any complications on his return to training and competition.
