Surveillance data indicate that both hospital-associated and community-associated MRSA cases occur, emphasizing the need for continued monitoring and infection control measures. Public awareness and preventive strategies are crucial in managing the spread of MRSA in the community.

Is staph infection and MRSA the same thing?
Yes and no. MRSA is a specific type of staph infection - MRSA is an acronym for Methicillin resisant Staphylococcus aureas. It denotes that the specific Staph organism has developed resistance to an antibiotic which is commonly used to treat skin and soft tissue infections. Because of this resistance, MRSA infections are harder to treat. For some reason, MRSA organisms are also frequently more virulent, meaning they cause worse infections. Currently, there are two different types of MRSA, hospital acquired and community acquired. These are denoted as HA-MRSA and CA-MRSA. HA-MRSA are more frequently the more virulent variety and are resistant to more antibiotics, while the CA-MRSA organisms are easier to treat and usually cause only boils and folliculitides, rather than systemic infections and pneumonias, like the HA-MRSA. MSSA, methicillin sensitive Staph aureas, is still the most common form of staph infection in most parts of the U.S. and can be treated pretty easily with many different types of antibiotics.
