Characterisation of <i>Staphylococcus argenteus</i> carried by healthy Royal Marines: a molecular epidemiology case-study

2021-06-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> During a prospective study of S. aureus carriage in Royal Marines (RM) recruits, six S. argenteus strains were identified in four recruits undertaking military training together. As S. argenteus sepsis leads to mortality similar to S. aureus , we determined the potential for person-to-person transmission, to evaluate future outbreak risk. <h4>Methods</h4> We used whole-genome sequencing to char...
