In June 1967, 1,473 isolations of salmonellae were reported from humans, an average of 368 isolations per week (Tables I and II). This number represents an increase of 10 (2.8 percent) over the weekly average of May 1967 and a decrease of 57 (13.4 percent) from the weekly average of June 1966.
Reports of 550 nonhuman isolations of salmonellae were received during June, a decrease of 3 (0.5 percent) from May 1967 (Tables IV, V, and VI).
Dr. Bernard Aserkoff has joined the Salmonellosis Unit, replacing Dr. L. Ariel Thomson, who is now pursuing graduate studies at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
