MRSA control in animals..Finnish style

As MRSA in animals gets more attention, there have been increasing efforts to develop guidelines to reduce the incidence and impact of this important zoonotic pathogen. Among these are a set of recommendations developed in Finland for the prevention and control of MRSA infections in animals (or metisilliiniresistentti Staphylococcus aureus, as they would say in Finnish).  Apart from the abstract which is translated into English, the document is entirely in Finnish, but it might be of interest to any of our readers that are proficient in that language (presumably a pretty small subset).  This is clearly a worldwide issue, and it's important that it is addressed on a worldwide basis.
