High Coxiella burnetii Seroconversion Rate in Veterinary Students, the Netherlands, 2006-2010.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We examined Coxiella burnetii seroconversion rates by measuring C. burnetii IgG among 2 cohorts of veterinary students. During follow-up of 118 seronegative veterinary students, 23 students seroconverted. Although the clinical importance of the presence of antibodies is unknown, veterinary students should be informed about the potential risks for Q fever.
