B. Schimmer,S. Luttikholt,Jeannine L A Hautvast,Elisabeth A.M. Graat,Piet Vellema,Yvonne T H P van Duynhoven +5 more
TL;DR: In 2009-2010, the seroprevalence in dairy goats in the Netherlands increased on animal and farm level compared to a previous study in 2008, and risk factors suggest spread from relatively closely located bulk milk-infected small ruminant farms, next to introduction and spread from companion animals, imported straw and use of artificial insemination.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The higher percentage of BTM positive farms in the area where the human Q fever outbreak started, supports the suspected relation between human cases and infected dairy goat farms.
Journal ArticleDOI
