2007
Martinov, S.
Within the period from 200 to 2006 the average seropositivity rate for C. burnetii was 10.51%. 67 strains of C. burnetii were isolated. The agricultural foci (AF) of Q fever are complex dinamycmulti - component systems with many pecularities large number of reservoirs and vectors, inhalatory and oral transmition, heterogeneous internal structure and five categories of animal affected. There is an autonomous circulation of C. burnetii and cyclic reproduction of the infection. The neighbouring natural foci (NF) influence on the progress and intensity of the epizootic process in AF. Between AF anf NF a systemic 2-way circulation of the causitive agent exists.
