As CA-MRSA is well established in the Australian community, it is important that antimicrobial resistance patterns in community- and healthcare-associated SAB are monitored, as this information will guide therapeutic practices in treating S. aureus sepsis.Between 2010 and 2013, an outbreak of serotype-1 sequence type 306 (ST306) invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) occurred primarily in remote locations of Northern and Central Australia. This is a descriptive study of the epidemiology of the outbreak using nationwide IPD surveillance data, supplemented with more detailed data held by affected jurisdictions, and of the response to the outbreak, including vaccination strategies. In the year the outbreak peaked (2011), serotype-1 IPD incidence was over 30-fold higher in the affected regions than in the rest of Australia (incidence rate ratio 30.7 [95% CI 20.1-48.9]). The study includes 245 cases of serotype-1 IPD from the outbreak regions, with 75.5% identified as Indigenous. No reported cases of serotype-1 IPD occurred in young children who had completed either a 10- or 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine schedule. However serotype-1 IPD did occur in older children who had previously received 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine. Development of public-health-focused national IPD management guidelines, including suitable vaccine strategies for consistent use nationwide, could potentially decrease the duration and intensity of similar outbreaks in the future.This consensus document presents the suggested guidelines developed by the Laboratory Technology Committee (LTC) of the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians (AAVLD) for development, validation, and modification (methods comparability) of real-time PCR (rtPCR) assays. These suggested guidelines are presented with reference to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) guidelines for validation of nucleic a
