Abstract

Cryptosporidiosis is rarely diagnosed in Norway. This is the first report of a human outbreak in Norway and involved 3 calves and 5 people. Sequencing studies were performed. Although 4 of the people acquired their infections from the calves, the other probably became infected from other calves or contaminated pens.
