, Marritta Joseph, RN 1, Lauren M. Sommer, MS 1, Anthony R. Flores, MD, MPH, PhD 2Abstract |
The early severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic was temporally associated with a reduction in many childhood infections, although the impact on bacterial colonization is unknown.

We observed a decline in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization associated with SARS-CoV-2 prevention mandates.
