ABSTRACT
Brucellosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria termed Brucella; the disease is found mainly in animals(zoonotic infection), but humans can be infected with these bacteria. Brucellosiscan rarely be transmitted from human to human,but this disease can move between humans through breast milk and sexual intercourse. Although rare, but brucellosis can also be transmitted through blood transfusion or transfusion from contaminated bone marrow. In very rare cases,the bacteria that cause brucellosis can even spread through the air. Always cover and keep the wounds clean when interacting with animals and avoid eating foods made from non pasteurized milk is one way to prevent transmission of brucellosis.Researcher: Akhidenor, Amenawon Glory
