Vibrio cholerae strain antimicrobial drug resistance profiles plotted by year, Democratic Republic of the Congo, 1997–2012. On the basis of the antibiogram results, strains were grouped into 21 antimicrobial drug resistance profiles. The antimicrobial drugs to which the strains displayed resistance are indicated on the right. Circle circumference represents the relative number of isolates per profile.
