Typhimurium ST19 (27.5% in May 2020 vs. 26% in May 2021) was the most common serotype confirmed this month. Uncommon serotype confirmed this month was Salmonella Waycross (13 human cases since it was first confirmed in New Zealand in 1996)
Due to COVID-19 effect on overseas travel and habits of the community post lockdown, there has been a downturn in the number of Salmonella samples.
