Abstract
⺠All attempts at active or passive immunization against S. aureus have failed. ⺠S. aureus lack a well-defined, single virulence factor. ⺠This lack of a clear target has hampered the development of a successful vaccine. ⺠All vaccine trials have been based upon protection to antibody levels. ⺠Th17/IL-17 has now been found to provide protective immunity.
