Subject: Continued Intensified Sampling Update
Importance:
High
Just a quick update for continued intensified sampling (Phase 2) results for the 5 establishments currently being
sampled:
Total Collected # Neg # Pos % Pos # In progress
M33901-P33901 35 23 0 0.0 12
M6137-P6137 63 47 4 7.8 12
P33900-V33900 35 27 0 0.0 8
P6137A 63 44 4 8.3 15
P7632 63 47 1 2.1 15
There are 9 positive samples so far just for the continued (Phase 2) sampling at these establishments. There is not any
subtyping information (serotype/PFGE) available yet, but unofficially I have heard that there are two Heidelbergs
identified, and PFGE is still pending for these isolates. I am hoping to get that info in the next two days and will send
an update as soon as I do.
Please share within your program areas as necessary.
