Accessed 21 Nov 2021. This paper discussed the updated geographical differences along with recent incidence and prevalence of MRSA. Furthermore, updated definitions for hospital and community onset were established. Key points regarding pathogenesis and clinical spectrum of MRSA were reported. Since rates of resistance are increasing and MRSA is no longer only a nosocomial infection, it is Important for clinicians in the community to be aware of the alternative risk factors and high risk populations.
