耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）菌株主要局限于医院和长期护理机构，现在正在社区出现。MRSA流行病学的变化与几十年前金黄色葡萄球菌中青霉素酶介导的耐药性的出现有着惊人的相似性。尽管新出现的MRSA菌株的来源（医院或社区）尚不清楚，但这些菌株在社区中的流行率似乎有可能大幅增加。
Strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which had been largely confined to hospitals and long-term care facilities, are emerging in the community. The changing epidemiology of MRSA bears striking similarity to the emergence of penicillinase-mediated resistance in S. aureus decades ago. Even though the origin (hospital or the community) of the emerging MRSA strains is not known, the prevalence of these strains in the community seems likely to increase substantially.
