On the pathogenicity of Br. abortus to humans
The question of human pathogenicity of Br. abortus has not been adequately studied. The literature on this subject was reviewed by us in our previous paper "Toward the epidemiology of brucellosis of the Bangov infection type". Recently published papers by Kashaeva and her associates, Kornyushenko and Ratner indicate that the pathogenicity of Br. abortus for humans is insignificant. This is confirmed by our own observations. Nevertheless, this question cannot be considered as finally settled, because in some cases Br. abortus is still able to cause disease in humans. This is evidenced by cases of "chronic rheumatism" due to brucellosis infection, which we observed during the examination of spa guests in one of the resorts in the Sverdlovsk region. The basis of these diseases was brucellosis infection, which had not been recognized by anyone before our study.
