摘要：
Molecular epidemiology of Staphylococcus aureus strains causing bacteremia in neonates during 2002 to 2005 revealed seven clones, with four MSSA clones responsible for 80% of the cases. Some clones persisted or reappeared throughout the study. Three bacteremic clones were found colonizing health care workers (HCWs), particularly clone C, which was harbored by at least 15% of HCWs.
