Evidence for Human Adaptation and Foodborne Transmission of Livestock-Associated Methicillin-ResistantStaphylococcus aureus: Table 1.
We investigated the evolution and epidemiology of a novel livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain, which colonizes and infects urban-dwelling Danes even without a Danish animal reservoir. Genetic evidence suggests both poultry and human adaptation, with poultry meat implicated as a probable source.
