The article discusses the study "Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococci in Companion Animals," conducted by Keith E. Baptiste, Kerry Williams et al. The study found methicillin-resistant Staphylococci aureus (MRSA) transmission between humans and dogs. The finding suggests that dogs can act as reservoirs of MRSA. It suggests that methicillin-resistant, coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) may compete well with methicillin-sensitive CNS in an environment where antimicrobial drugs are not present. |
