What is MRSA Strain Variability and Virulence about?

There are several genetic lineages of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) that have emerged through the integration of the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) into methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA). Historically, major MRSA clones caused hospital-acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA) infections but newer community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) strains have emerged, infecting those outside of healthcare settings. CA-MRSA strains are often distinct from HA-MRSA genetically and in their virulence
