Snippet: The prevalence of MRSA has large variations across different countries. In Europe, a general north-south gradient has been observed, with rare incidence in Scandinavian hospitals and much higher occurrence in Mediterranean hospitals (Stefani and Varaldo, 2003; Tiemersma et al., 2004; Johnson, 2011) .

Document: The prevalence of MRSA has large variations across different countries. In Europe, a general north-south gradient has been observed, with rare incidence in Scandinavian hospitals and much higher occurrence in Mediterranean hospitals (Stefani and Varaldo, 2003; Tiemersma et al., 2004; Johnson, 2011) . In particular, Sweden remains one of the few countries with a low prevalence of MRSA infection (Stenhem et al., 2006) . A substantial proportion of MRSA cases in Sweden has been imported from abroad due to traveling and healthcare contacts in foreign countries (Stenhem et al., 2010; Larsson et al., 2014) . As a consequence, analyzing MRSA outbreaks in Sweden offers a good opportunity to study the hybrid dynamics of MRSA in hospital settings where both nosocomial transmission and importation occurs.
