Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a Beauty Salon
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 10/31/08
Huijsdens XW et al. - Study shows that CA-MRSA is an emerging problem in the community setting. In the Netherlands, patients are generally only tested after recurrent infections. Unless outbreaks occur in a defined group, MRSA remains undetected in the general population because reporting is not mandatory. Although the prevalence of MRSA in the Netherlands is low, local microbiologic laboratories should report outbreaks, when detected, to the local municipal health department for further investigation.
