Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal organism that is widely distributed in nature. Approximately 20%–30% of healthy people carry this organism, mostly in the nose [3]. Carriage of S. aureus rarely causes disease in healthy individuals, but it is associated with an increased risk for the emergence of infections in various populations. Individuals in the community mostly become infected with their own carriage strain [4]. Since the introduction of antibiotics, S. aureus has quickly become resistant to many relevant antibiotics such as β-lactams and macrolides [4,5]. Antibiotic-resistant strains, such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), have emerged as a significant threat in both the hospital and community settings [6]. Several studies in healthy individuals in the general population and in children or specific groups have shown resistance to S. aureus [7–12]. Therefore, studies on the probable association between consumption of antibiotics by the individual and resistance to S. aureus in the general population are needed.
