| Popis: | We show that MRSArg has been circulating in the Netherlands since at least 2008. Although MRSArg is distinct from MRSA, it has a comparable population structure and carries similar resistance and virulence genes. The Dutch national MRSA surveillance has been expanded to include other methicillin-resistant members of the S. aureus complex, such as S. argenteus and Staphylococcus schweitzeri . |
