These genetic variations within different MRSA strains possibly explain the variability in virulence and associated MRSA infections. [55] The first MRSA strain, ST250 MRSA-1, originated from SCCmec and ST250-MSSA integration. [55] Historically, major MRSA clones ST2470-MRSA-I, ST239-MRSA-III, ST5-MRSA-II, and ST5-MRSA-IV were responsible for ...
The estimated incidence is 1 in 15,000 exposures, and is more frequent in people over 55 years old, females, and those with treatment longer than 2 weeks. [ 6 ] It should be used with caution and monitored in the elderly, particularly with intravenous administration, due to a risk of thrombophlebitis .

Linezolid is an antibiotic used for the treatment of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics. [9] [10] Linezolid is active against most Gram-positive bacteria that cause disease, including streptococci, vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Ceftaroline fosamil / s ɛ f ˈ t ær oʊ l iː n /, brand name Teflaro in the US and Zinforo in Europe, [1] [2] is a cephalosporin antibiotic with anti-MRSA activity. [3] Ceftaroline fosamil is a prodrug of ceftaroline. It is active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other Gram-positive bacteria.

A new study — published Dec. 3 in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report — analyzes 60 waterborne disease outbreaks associated with splash pads from 23 states and Puerto Rico between 1997 and 2022.
Nafcillin sodium is a narrow-spectrum [1] beta-lactam antibiotic [2] of the penicillin class. As a beta-lactamase-resistant penicillin, it is used to treat infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, in particular, species of staphylococci that are resistant to other penicillins.
