Description:
FOR THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY.

This issue of the Salmonella Surveillance Report contains discussions of three hospital-associated epidemics, details of an outbreak traced to a Montana restaurant, and the announcement of a course on methods for the isolation of salmonellae. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration Statement on Salmonella Contamination of Animal Feeds is reprinted.

In February 1967, 1184 isolations of salmonellae were reported from humans, an average of 296 isolations per week (Tables I and II). This number represents a decrease of 63 (17.5 percent) from the weekly average of January 1967 and an increase of 9 (3.1 percent) over the weekly average of February 1966.

Reports of 771 nonhuman isolations of salmonellae were received during February, a decrease of 208 (21.2 percent) from January 1967 (Tables IV, V, and VI).
