    Thanks, mixin! It looks like we might end up with more cases in 2014 than 2013 if the trend continues.

      You're welcome

      I'm not sure how they are comparing...I assumed those stats are comparing the first 2 quarters of this year to the first 2 quarters of last year? If that's so, then the cases are down, except in E.S. Central.

      I'd like to know how many of them are drug resistant.

        I was assuming the 2013 cumulative numbers were for the whole year. It would make more sense as far as usefulness for rough comparison purposes if the cumulative numbers were the first 2 quarters so I'd bet you are right.

          If I'm right, it's only by chance.

          Looks like cases are increasing this year over last year:

          I went back and looked at the 1st quarter of this year; here it is. I included the 2nd quarter for easier comparison.
