Abstract

•S. aureus recovered from livestock and farm attendants was characterized by AST and WGS.•Isolates were frequently resistant to penicillin (68%) and tetracycline (44%)•Twelve (48%) isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR) (>3 classes). 4. ST152-t355, ST9-t1430, and ST133-t8662 were the dominant clones.•Typing results provided evidence of a single potential transmission event (t861, PVL-, scn+).
