Distribution of SA nasal carrier indices among 109 healthy individuals monitored longitudinally. Carrier index is defined as the number of SA positive nasal swabs over number of total swabs for each individual person. A total of 61 SA nasal carriers and 48 non-carriers were monitored longitudinally and their respective carrier indices are represented here. NC, indicates SA non-carrier state; SA intermittent carriage state; and PC, SA persistent carriage state.
