Preferred term

brucellosis  

Definition

  • Brucellosis, which primarily affects mammals such as deer and elk, cattle, pigs, dogs, sheep, and goats, is an infectious disease caused by Brucella bacteria. Human cases of brucellosis are rare, but are more common in places where public health efforts are limited; unpasteurized milk and dairy products account for the most common route of infection.
