General informationThis section has been translated automatically.
MRSA was first directly linked to the keeping of pigs in 2005. In the course of the preoperative examination of a small child in a hospital, a so-called non-typable MRSA (NT-MRSA) was detected. The work-up of this case led via the profession of the parents, pig farmers, to the proof of the colonization of pigs with MRSA. Generally, the MRSA starting from the pig reservoir were called LA-MRSA.
