📊 Reading these trends
Charts use the collection year field from NCBI BioSample. Only genomes with a plausible year (2000–present) are shown. MRSA consensus and SCCmec both use the CGE caller, matching pages/mrsa.html. Sequencing output reflects real epidemiology plus deposition behaviour; a spike can mean a large study was published, not that infections surged. The 3-year rolling average smooths submitter noise on MRSA rate.
