HIV-infected patients remain a highly vulnerable population for MRSA colonization. Though who carried MRCoNS is less likely to have MRSA colonization, similarity of some antibiotic resistance between MRSA and MRCoNS was found in this study. Regular surveillance on the colonization and antibiotic patterns of MRSA and MRCoNS is still necessary.
