lets say there was a staph a outbreak in neonatal care department.
how do we confirm that the staph a strain of infant is same as the staph a strain of the nurse?

and why is it difficult to generate vaccine against staph a? is there any antigenic variant? if yes which antigen would that be? protein A?
