Evaluation of a program for surveillance, prevention and control of Coxiella burnetii in small ruminants

It is asked to the Scientific Committee to evaluate a program of surveillance, prevention and control of Coxiella burnetii in small ruminants, and to answer several specific questions. The program is based on the urgent advice 01-2010 and on the rapid advice 08-2010 of the Scientific Committee. The aim of the program is to control the dispersion of Coxiella burnetii in small ruminants and to limit the transmission of the bacteria to humans. The main source of infection for humans is by inhalation of with Coxiella burnetii contaminated dust or aerosols. These aerosols are mainly formed by the e... Mehr ...

It is asked to the Scientific Committee to evaluate a program of surveillance, prevention and control of Coxiella burnetii in small ruminants, and to answer several specific questions. The program is based on the urgent advice 01-2010 and on the rapid advice 08-2010 of the Scientific Committee. The aim of the program is to control the dispersion of Coxiella burnetii in small ruminants and to limit the transmission of the bacteria to humans. The main source of infection for humans is by inhalation of with Coxiella burnetii contaminated dust or aerosols. These aerosols are mainly formed by the excretion of the bacteria during parturition or abortion, and/or via excreta of infected animals. ; BE; fr ; secretariaat.scicom@favv-afsca.be
