The circulation of methicillin-resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> between humans, horses and the environment at the equine clinic
Repeated introduction and long-term persistence of the equine LA-MRSA subclone (ST398-MRSA-IVa/Vc(5C2&5), t011) among the infected horses at the equine clinic with the colonization of personnel, and the environment contamination that might contribute to transmission were observed.
