耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）是对公共卫生的一种新的威胁，特别是在惩教环境中。近年来，在密西西比、加州、得克萨斯和格鲁吉亚的监狱和监狱中都出现了疫情。此外，许多惩教机构的MRSA感染率高于一般人群。本文探讨了在矫正环境中关于MRSA的经验教训，并思考了在这些人群中关于这种疾病还有待了解的内容。
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an emerging threat to public health, especially in correctional settings. Outbreaks have been seen in jails and prisons in Mississippi, California, Texas, and Georgia in recent years. Also, many correctional settings have seen an increase in MRSA infection greater than in the general population. This article examines the lessons that have been learned about MRSA in correctional settings and ponders what is yet to be learned about this disease in these populations.
