Description:For the Month of October 1965
During October, 1,910 human isolations of salmonella were reported in the United States for an average of 478 per week. This figure represented a decrease of 26 per week from September, but an increase of 16 over October 1964. The seasonal pattern through October is similar to previous years (Figure 1). The cumulative number of reported human isolations for the first 10 months of 1965 (17,495) continues to lag behind the previous year's figure of 17,818. This appears to be due to the large interstate outbreak of Salmonella derby which boosted the figures for both 1963 and 1964. (See REPORTS OF ISOLATIONS FROM THE STATES).
Nonhuman isolations of salmonellae during October totaled 761, an increase of 109 over September.
A preliminary report of the investigation of an unusual serotype, j>. saphra. is in the CURRENT INVESTIGATIONS section. Included in this month's REPORTS FROM STATES are: a report of an outbreak related to a wedding party in Illinois, a summary of
salmonellosis in Chicago during 1964 and the report of a Salmonella typhi-murium epidemic in North Carolina traced to a school lunchroom.
An isolation of salmonella from x-ray contrast powder is reported in the SPECIAL REPORTS section, and summaries of Australian and Belgian salmonella data are included in the INTERNATIONAL section.
