Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Livestock-associated MRSA (LA-MRSA) transmission/cross-contamination can occur at abattoir through colonized pigs, increasing occupational hazards and health concerns for workers. To assess this risk we used genomics to identify LA-MRSA lineages present in batches of pigs sent to slaughter and distribution of clones. METHODS: WGS was performed on 85 LA-MRSA previously isolated from six abattoirs from...
