Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: USA300 produces Panton-Valentin leucocidin (PVL) and is known as a predominant community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strain in the United States, but it was extremely rare in Japan. We report here an outbreak of USA300 in people with HIV (PWH) in Tokyo, Japan. METHODS: We analyzed the cases of PVL-MRSA infection between 2010 and 2020 and screened for nasal...
