Genomic surveillance reveals expansion of community-associated MRSA strains in hospital patients, highlighting horizontal gene transfer in driving resistance.
Our results highlight the recent concurrent expansion and geographical dissemination of CA-MRSA clones across hospitals. These findings also underscore the interplay between clonal spread and horizontal gene transfer in shaping the resistance landscape of MRSA.
