• Description:
  Third and Fourth Quarters
  
  For the period July through December 1974, 10,193 shigella isolations from humans were reported. This represents an increase of 981 (10.6%) over the 9,212 isolations reported for the preceding 6 months and a decrease of 23 (0.2%) from the 10,216 isolations reported for the corresponding months of 1973 (Tables I-A and I-B).* This decrease in reported isolations probably represents a somewhat greater decrease than that indicated since the 1974 total included 2,243 isolations from California whose isolations had not been included in the 1973 totals.
  
  Approximately 48.2 isolations per million population were reported for the second half of 1974, a decrease of 12.5% from the 55.1 isolations per million for the second half of 1973.
