Human cases of Bang disease
The microbe that causes epidemic abortion in cows and other domestic animals (goats, sheep, pigs), since its discovery by Bang and Stribolt in 1896, has long been considered pathogenic only for animals and non-pathogenic for humans; and only after the works of Kiefer (1924) and Gabby (1928) it was, with no doubt, established that this microbe is pathogenic for humans. The first managed to obtain a blood culture of this microbe from the blood of one patient with an unclear prolonged febrile illness, and the second managed to prove its pathogenicity for humans on the basis of experiments with vaccinations.
