Lanes 4 through 7 and 9 are from inmates whose isolates had the 11- band pattern matching that of 12 inmates and two guards. Lanes 2 and 3 are from two of three inmates with an identical 12-band pattern. Lane 8 is from an inmate whose isolate did not match those of other jail cases, and lane 10 is from a person living in the community. Figure Legend: Copyright © American College of Physicians.

Inmate P was not considered infectious. Figure Legend: Copyright © American College of Physicians. All rights reserved.American College of Physicians
