No Change in Risk for Antibiotic-Resistant Salmonellosis from Beef, United States, 2002–2010
Figure 4

Figure 4. Predicted changes in each year’s cases of antimicrobial-resistant salmonellosis from beef, United States, 2002–2010. Mean and 95% credible intervals of the predicted change are shown for the hypothetical scenario of 100% raised-without-antibiotics beef consumption, assuming a direct linear relationship between prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant Salmonella in beef and antimicrobial-resistant salmonellosis cases (solid line and dark grey shading), contrasted with the result from adjusting the relationship of beef resistance and prevalence with human cases based on the Poisson regression between the 2 variables (dotted line and light grey shading).
