Surveillance, prevention and control of Coxiella burnetii in cattle
- 1. Federal Agency for the Safety of the Food Chain
Description
With the aim to work out a program for surveillance, prevention and control of Coxiella burnetii
in cattle, several questions were asked to the Scientific Committee.
Cattle, like small ruminants, are considered to represent a reservoir for Coxiella burnetii.
Aerogenic transmission of Coxiella burnetii strains between cattle and small ruminants, and
vice versa, is considered to be possible. People can be infected by Coxiella burnetii strains
from cattle. There is uncertainty about the type and virulence of circulating Coxiella burnetii
strains in cattle in Belgium.
