Emergence and Characterization of Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphyloccocus aureus Infections in Denmark, 1999 to 2006▿

Larsen, A. R., Stegger, M., Böcher, S., Sørum, M., Monnet, D. L., Skov, R. L.

The epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections has changed worldwide. From being strictly nosocomial, MRSA is now frequently found as a community-associated (CA)...
