• Description:
  For the Month of March, 1965
  
  This report marks the 36th month of salmonella surveillance in the United States and
  
  presents data concerning 1,515 human isolations of salmonellae during March, for an
  
  average of 303 recoveries per week. This represented an increase of 3 per week over
  
  February and a decrease from Majrch 1964 of 17. The first quarter of 1965 demonstrated
  
  71 (1.6 per cent) fewer reported human recoveries than the same period last year. The
  
  difference can probably be accounted for by the Salmonella derby outbreak which
  
  resulted in 804 recoveries during the first quarter of 1964 as opposed to 175 for the
  
  same period this year. Salmonella derby accounted for an average of 62 recoveries
  
  per week during January, February, and March last year, 49 more than 1965. An
  
  editorial summarizing the _S. derby problem to date appears under Special Reports in
  
  this issue.
  
  There were 524 nonhuman isolations of salmonellae reported during March, representing
  
  an increase of 117 over February. In contrast to reported human recoveries, nonhuman
  
  recoveries during the first quarter this year accounted for more than the same period
  
  last year. This year, an average of 456 recoveries per month was reported, 78 (20.6
  
  per cent) more than the first quarter of 1964.
