Clonal Complexes Distribution of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Isolates from Clinical Samples from the Caribbean Islands

Clonal Complexes Distribution of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Isolates from Clinical Samples from the Caribbean Islands

The aim of this study was to comprehensively characterise <i>S. aureus</i> from the Caribbean Islands of Trinidad and Tobago, and Jamaica. A total of 101 <i>S. aureus</i>/<i>argenteus</i> isolates were collected in 2020, mainly from patients with skin and soft tis...
