Quantifying type-specific reproduction numbers for nosocomial pathogens: Evidence for heightened transmission of an Asian sequence type 239 MRSA clone

Quantifying type-specific reproduction numbers for nosocomial pathogens: Evidence for heightened transmission of an Asian sequence type 239 MRSA clone

An important determinant of a pathogen's success is the rate at which it is transmitted from infected to susceptible hosts. Although there are anecdotal reports that methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones vary in their transmissibility in hospital settings, attempts to quanti...
