Fig. 1 Comparison of the geographical distribution of the major methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clones in Hungary during 1994–1998 and 2001–2004. The Hungarian clone (ST239-III) is represented by circles, the Southern German clone (ST228-I) by triangles, and the New York/Japan clone (ST5-II) by squares. The counties studied in each period are highlighted in grey.
