Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Epidemiology

Context:

  • Brucellosis remains a significant zoonotic disease globally.
  • Poland has historically managed animal brucellosis, leading to occupational exposure risks.
  • Recent trends indicate a shift in infection patterns.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of registered human brucellosis cases in Poland.
  • To differentiate between chronic occupational cases and newly imported infections.
  • To inform public health strategies for brucellosis prevention and control.

Summary:

  • The study identified 48 registered cases of chronic human brucellosis in Poland, predominantly affecting veterinarians with a history of animal brucellosis control.
  • An additional 8 cases of acute or subacute brucellosis were documented as imported from the Mediterranean region.

  • This highlights a dual epidemiological profile: long-term occupational exposure and imported infections.
  • Impact:

    • Findings underscore the persistent risk of brucellosis for veterinary professionals in Poland.
    • The emergence of imported cases necessitates enhanced surveillance at points of entry and travel health advisories.
    • This data can guide targeted interventions and improve diagnostic and treatment protocols for brucellosis.
