Results of water/shore transect sampling. In each of 4 transects in each of two rivers, we sampled 3 points in triplicate for a total of 72 samples. The number of samples in which infectious and saprophytic (in parentheses) Leptospira were detected are the numerator out of the total number of samples collected at each point in the transects (denominator) are shown. The exact location of the site was on the shore, immediately next to the river in an area that is commonly wet with waves from the river
