ABSTRACT
High-level levofloxacin-resistant group A Streptococcus emerged in Taiwan in 2012. Among the 24 isolates identified, 23 belonged to emm12/ST36, most harbored the same GyrA and ParC mutations and were highly clonal. wgMLST showed them to be closely related to the Hong Kong scarlet fever outbreak strains. Continuous surveillance is warranted.
