Influence of wind direction on the relationship between proximity to pig farms and risk of infection with MRSA CC398 among persons without known contact to livestock: a Danish nationwide population-based study
The risk of livestock-MRSA infection among persons without known livestock contact was influenced by the number of and distance to pig farms. In an exploratory post-hoc analysis, but not the main analysis, the risk was also influenced by mean wind direction.
