Staphylococcus aureus strain sequence type (ST) 398 has emerged during the last decade, largely among persons who have contact with swine or other livestock. Although colonization with ST398 is common in livestock workers, infections are not frequently documented. We report recurrent ST398-IIa infection in an Iowa farmer in contact with swine and cattle.
金黄色葡萄球菌菌株序列型 (ST) 398 在过去十年中出现,主要在与猪或其他牲畜有接触的人群中。尽管 ST398 在牲畜工作者中普遍定植,但感染并不常见。我们报告了一位与猪和牛接触的爱荷华州农民反复感染 ST398-IIa 的情况。
