Community-acquired Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Uruguay
A novel, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clone
(Uruguay clone) with a non–multidrug-resistant phenotype caused a large
outbreak, including 7 deaths, in Montevideo, Uruguay. The clone was distinct
from the highly virulent community clone represented by strain MW2, although
both clones carried Panton-Valentine leukocidin gene and cna
gene
