Genomic characterization of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from patients attending selected regional referral hospitals in Tanzania. This study aimed to characterize and determine the resistance profiles of Methicillin-resistant and Methicillin-susceptible S. aureus isolates from six regional referral hospitals in Tanzania. It investigated a subcollection of the bacterial isolates collected at six regional referral hospitals in Tanzania in 2020-2021 as part of the Fleming Fund SeqAfrica project, a UK Aid funded initiative to strengthen AMR surveillance in Africa.
