Subject: RE: Heidelberg Pct Hospitalized by PFGE<br />

Hi Uday—<br />

Here is today’s update to the requested information.<br />

Based on Aphrodite’s work last summer, patterns 258 and 45 are the most closely related in the cluster at 99% similar<br />

with one band differing. Patterns 122 and 672 are about 97% similar with one band difference. Pattern 22 is 90% or<br />

less similar to all other patterns.<br />

California was keeping track of this information separately early on in the investigation. It is interesting to revisit now<br />

that the number of case-patients has increased. I am not detecting any clear patterns. Please let me know what you<br />

think. Thanks! J<br />

Pattern % hospitalized (n) Median Age % Male<br />

22 42% (21/50) 20 yrs (n=55) 45%<br />

41 44% (<strong>14</strong>/32) 20 yrs (n=49) 43%<br />

45 52% (28/54) 22 yrs (n=77) 54%<br />

122 33% (8/24) 23 yrs (n=31) 52%<br />

258 29% (22/76) 18 yrs (n=117) 56%<br />

326 25% (4/16) 20 yrs (n=25) 50%<br />

672 50% (1/2) 9 yrs (n=2) 50%<br />
