“…Most prominent among binary toxin-negative strains were ST2/13(RT014/020), ST8(RT002), ST6(RT005/117), ST14/49(RT014), ST12/54/139(RT012) and ST3(RT001), consistent with several studies from Europe [18][19][20][21], Sweden [22,23], Scotland [24], the US [25][26][27], worldwide [28] and Australia [29]. ST2/13(RT014/020) accounted for 19.5% of all isolates, and several other studies have found this type predominant and often associated with a community acquired origin [27,29].…”

ST2/13(RT014/020) accounted for 19.5% of all isolates, and several other studies have found this type predominant and often associated with a community acquired origin [27,29]. A recent Danish study found this type common among dog faeces collected from rubbish bins in public parks in Copenhagen, and closely related (cgMLST) to human clinical isolates collected from the same area during the same time period [30].…”

“…In contrast, the opposite order was seen among CA-CDI isolates, where ST2 was the most detected strain, followed by ST42. Several studies suggested that RT014/RT020/ST2 has a community origin (25,26), a hypothesis that was strengthened by the current results. Furthermore, RT014/ST2 isolates have been recovered from various environmental sources including wastewater (27), parks and homes (28), another strengthening evidence for a community origin for this strain.…”

“…This observation was reversed for clade 1, which was more prevalent inland [ 101 ]. Another recent study [ 94 ] focusing on stool specimens recovered from 2011 to 2016 in the states of Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Massachusetts, California, and Virginia showed a marked decrease in the prevalence of RT027 over these six years in agreement with what was seen in Europe and Canada [ 94 , 112 , 115 , 116 , 117 , 118 ]. This decrease was also found in a 2020 study [ 119 ], covering the 2011â2018 period in Texas, where the most common RT was RT027, followed by RT014-020, RT106, and RT002.…”
