Most methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates harboring mecC gene belong to clonal advanced CC130. This lineage has historically been considered animal-associated because it lacks the human particular immune evasion cluster (IEC), and has been recovered from a broad vary of animal hosts. However, sporadic mecC-MRSA human infections have been reported, with proof of zoonotic transmission in some instances. The…
