Additional isolates are no longer needed for the purpose of describing the epidemiology of S. capitis NRCS-A in England.

We do however still encourage labs to send any S. capitis isolate that is suspected to belong to a cluster or outbreak and meets the case definition from the latest briefing note (Briefing Note 2021/078, issued 15 November 2021). These isolates can be sent to the Staphylococcus reference laboratory under code ‘NRCS-A’ using the relevant H3 or H4 forms.
