Scoring of external clinical signs seen in mortality in the cohabitation experiment as a percentage of total mortality. Duplicate groups are combined. Scores were 0 to 3 for mouth and skin lesions, and 0 to 2 for gill lesions as described in Frisch, Småge [11], with 0 being no visible abnormalities and 2 or 3, the most severe.
