Distribution of S. aureus prevalence in colonization and clinical infections in humans. Based on reviewed publications in Tanzania from 2010 to 2020, slight zonal variations in prevalence of different infections could be observed. Blood born S. aureus was more prevalent in the Lake zone. Collectively the review revealed that S. aureus was most frequently implicated in association with SSTIs. Prevalence of S. aureus in human colonization in all reported zones was generally less than 30% with exception to the northern zone where the prevalence was uncharacteristically high
