• Description:
  for the Year 1976
  
  For 1976, 7,907 Shigella isolations from humans were reported to the Center for Disease Control. This was a decrease of 46.4% from the 14,757 isolations reported in 1975 (Table I, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters); part of the decrease can be explained by California's discontinuing reporting in 1976.
  
  Utilizing population estimates for July 1, 1976, approximately 40.9 isolations were reported for each million population of the United States in 1976. The corresponding rates for 1974 and 1975 were 84.0 and 56.8, respectively.
