aThe percentage corresponds to the proportion of isolates that have that specific sequence type in the entire collection (217 isolates).
bBased on the ccr and mec complex type only. SCCmec entries with mec complex class followed by ccr complex type are shown when a SCCmec type was not attributable because ccr and/or the mec complex class were nontypeable or when a not-yet-described association between ccr and mec complex was found.
cI, infection origin; C, colonization origin.
