Description:
For the Month of October 1967

This issue of the Salmonella Surveillance Report contains reports of outbreaks from five states, a review of food-borne outbreaks compiled by the National Communicable Disease Center, and a list of products recalled by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration because of salmonella contamination.

In October 1967, 1,667 isolations of salmonellae were reported from humans, an average of 417 isolations per week (Tables I and II). This number represents a decrease of 60 (12.6 percent) from the weekly average of September 1967 and a decrease of 13 (3.0 percent) from the weekly average of October 1966. Reports of 472 nonhuman isolations of salmonellae were received during October, an increase of 197 (71.6 percent) over September 1967 (Tables IV, V, and VI). This marked increase in nonhuman isolates reported for October is due to inclusion of isolates from regional laboratories of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. These reports were omitted in September.
