Abstract
⺠Numerous CA-MRSA lineages have been described in the last two decades. ⺠Several of these may be considered pandemic, particularly USA300. ⺠We highlight the molecular epidemiology of CA-MRSA clones at the present time. ⺠The close association between CA-MRSA and PVL remains controversial. ⺠CA-MRSA clones are increasingly causing healthcare-associated infections worldwide.
