Figure Lengend Snippet: Macrolide susceptibility of B. pertussis isolates in Shanghai, 2018–2024. Stacked bars indicate the annual percentage of macrolide-sensitive B. pertussis (MSBP) and macrolide-resistant B. pertussis (MRBP) isolates, with the leftmost bar showing the overall (“Total”) distribution. Blue segments denote MSBP (ERY/AZM/CLR MIC ≤1 mg/L) and orange segments denote MRBP (ERY/AZM/CLR MIC ≥256 mg/L); the number within each segment indicates the count of isolates. The y-axis shows percentage of isolates, and the x-axis shows year of collection.
