Brucellosis By: Leah Kasheta

Brucellosis is: Causes: An infectious disease that occurs from contact with other animals carrying the Brucella bacteria. Can spread to humans. Bacteria is spread by eating/drinking unpasteurized milk or cheese. People that come in contact with animals or meat are most at risk such as slaughterhouse workers, vets, and farmers. Causes: 4 different types of bacteria Brucella melitensis Brucella suis Brucella abortus Brucella canis Brucella melitensis is the most prevalent and is thought to cause the most severe cases of brucellosis.

Animals most commonly found with brucellosis CATTLE GOAT SHEEP DOGS PIGS CAMELS

Symptoms: Symptoms may develop months after exposure. Can be chronic and last for years. Symptoms can be similar to many other illnesses Fever Sweating Body aches Joint pain Fatigue Weakness Dizziness Headache Depression Loss of appetite Weight loss Chills Swollen glands

Diagnosis: The similarities between brucellosis and other illnesses make it difficult to diagnose. Ways to diagnose brucellosis are : Blood test and blood/tissue cultures CT scan or MRI Ultrasound Lumbar puncture Joint aspiration Electrocardiogram

Treatment: Prevention: Antibiotics are used to treat the infection and keep it from coming back Rarely surgery may occur for certain complications BE CAREFUL! – Relapse may occur and symptoms may come back even after a long period of time Prevention: Drinking/eating pasteurized milk or cheese Wearing protective goggles and clothing when handling meat Vaccinations for cattle Detecting infected animals
