Worldwide, researchers estimate Staphylococcus aureus was linked to more than 1 million deaths, while four more pathogens were associated with more than 500,000 deaths each.
We estimated deaths associated with 33 bacterial genera or species across 11 infectious syndromes in 2019 using methods from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD).
