Objectives: species are the most frequently isolated microorganisms in cases of spontaneous preterm labor, premature rupture of the membranes, or chorioamnionitis.
Case Presentation: A woman at 28 weeks of gestation with no apparent history of interest presented at the hospital with contractions. Upon suspicion of chorioamnionitis, the patient was admitted for a low segment transverse cesarean section, which was completed without any complications.
Since the first reinfection by SARS-CoV-2 was known in August 2020, several cases have been described around the world. We present the first reinfection of an immunocompetent patient confirmed in Galicia (Spain). The clinical-epidemiological information was obtained through an interview with the patient.

Introduction: Livestock are known reservoirs of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and this constitutes an important public health issue. The prevalence of nasal MRSA carriers in swine housed indoors in Galicia, Spain, was studied.
Methods: 197 samples from swine aged three, eight, 12, 16 and 24 weeks, and from adult pigs, were obtained from four farms.

Introduction: Fluoroquinolone resistance in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has increased in recent years. The objective of this study was to characterise two MRSA populations, one susceptible to fluoroquinolones and other resistant identifying the clonal types and the differential characteristics of both MRSA populations.
Methods: Molecular typing using PFGE, MLST, spa and SSCmec was performed on 192 MRSA strains isolated from 2009 to 2011, 49 only oxacillin-resistant (OX-R) and 143 oxacillin and levofloxacin-resistant (OX-R-LEV-R).
