PubMLST Mirror Sites
In order to provide a robust service for the public health community, the PubMLST.org website and associated databases are mirrored. If the primary site is unavailable for any reason, the mirrors should remain available. In the future, we envisage a network of geographically-spread mirror sites.
The website and databases are synchronised every evening, so the mirror should be at most one day behind.
Our most recent mirror has been set up at the University of Pittsburgh, USA, usmirror1.pubmlst.org. We are grateful to Kathleen Shutt for setting this up and to Lee Harrison for agreeing to host the site.
