New epidemiology of Staphylococcus aureus infection in Asia
https://www.clinicalmicrobiologyandinfection.com/article/S1198-743X(14)61146-0/pdf
S. aureus infections in Asian countries varies markedly, from <5% to >35%. Two pandemic HA-MRSA clones, namely multilocus sequence type (ST) 239 and ST5, are disseminated internationally in Asia, whereas the molecular epidemiology of CA-MRSA in Asia is characterized by clonal heterogeneity, similar to that in Europe.

bacteraemias caused by MRSA remained relatively stable – between 17% and 18%. However, a number of important variations in MRSA bacteraemia, by place of onset, were identified. • Community-associated (CA) MRSA emerged as the dominant cause of MRSA bacteraemia, while hospital-associated (HA) MRSA decreased (Box 1).
