Dynamics of acquisition and loss of carriage of Staphylococcus aureus strains in the community: the effect of clonal complex.
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage increases infection risk. However, few studies have investigated S. aureus acquisition/loss over >1 year, and fewer still used molecular typing. METHODS: 1123 adults attending five Oxfordshire general practices had nasal swabs taken. 571 were r...
