Kaplan-Meier survival plots calculated for BALB/c mice exposed to aerosolized Burkholderia pseudomallei ATS2021, the causative strain in an outbreak of 4 cases, 2 of them fatal, in the United States in 2021. A) Survival after 21 days; B) survival after 60 days. N = 10 per aerosolized dose of B. pseudomallei. The day 21 survival rates from highest to lowest calculated inhaled dose of B. pseudomallei ATS2021 (960 CFU, 186 CFU, 21 CFU, 2 CFU, 0.4 CFU) as depicted in panel A are 0/10, 0/10, 1/10, 8/10, and 9/10. The day 60 survival rates as depicted in panel B are 0/10, 0/10, 1/10, 8/10, and 9/10.
