Infection with brucellosis from sick animals occurs by contact, food and air routes. Infection by contact occurs especially often when amniotic fluid gets on the skin (help with calving, lambing, when caring for newborn calves, lambs). Veterinarians, calves, shepherds, etc. are often infected. Infection can also occur through contact with the meat of infected animals, with manure.
Brucella penetrate through the slightest damage to the skin. Food contamination often occurs through raw milk, as well as through the use of dairy products (feta cheese, cheese, butter). Airborne infection can occur when dust containing brucella enters the respiratory tract (in places of cialis andin sheep pens), as well as in laboratories in case of violation of safety regulations. This route of infection is relatively rare. In most cases, this is an occupational disease.
