Brucellosis in Uganda.

D G Ndyabahinduka, I H Chu.   

Abstract

The paper reviews the present situation of brucellosis in Uganda and indicates that the infection is much more widespread than was hitherto considered. Positive agglutinin reactors among the unselected hospital patients in the zone of endemicity occupy 18-24%. The serology against bovine brucellosis in the newly established dairy farms and ranches shows 18.1% positive.
