Heat map of provinces with human brucellosis cases, by north and south and the latitude of the capital city of each province, China. A) Time series of incidence rate per 100,000 residents during 1955–2014, standardized by the eighth root. B) Time series of monthly cases, 2005–2014, standardized by the annual number of cases reported by each province. C) Seasonal distribution of cases by province, plotted as the mean value of the proportion of cases in each week of the year from 2005 through 2014
