Abstract

PVL-positive S. aureus skin and soft tissue infections have a major impact on quality of life and mental health, often for months and beyond the period of infection. Pre-treating physicians were poorly informed about the PVL toxin. Increased awareness for early diagnosis and treatment of this yet neglected disease are required.
