Brucellosis also known as Rock Fever and Cyprus Fever, is an infectious disease caused by a type of bacteria called Brucella.
It is most often seen in the spring and summer months in countries with poor hygienic culture regimes.
The bacteria can spread from animals to humans.
There are several different strains of Brucella bacteria. Some types are seen in cows. Others occur in dogs, pigs, sheep, goats, and camels.
Recently, scientists have seen new strains in the red fox and certain marine animals, including seals.
Brucellosis is considered a significant health threat in many parts of the world. The disease has been reported in more than a half-million people each year around the globe, according to the World Health Organization.

What Causes Brucellosis?

Brucellosis in humans occurs when a person comes into contact with an animal or animal product infected with the Brucella bacteria.

Very rarely, the bacteria may spread from person to person (partner to partner, breast feeding, miss use of syringes/bandages etc).
The bacteria can enter to the organism through:

  • Through a cut or scratch in the skin
  • Contaminated air (very rare)
  •  Eat or drink something contaminated with the bacteria. (such as unpasteurized milk or undercooked meat, eggs etc)

There are four types of Brucella bacteria cause the majority of brucellosis infections in humans:

Brucella Melitensis

This type causes most cases of human brucellosis and is mainly found in sheep and goats. It is most often seen in:

  • Spain.
  • Greece
  • Latin America.
  • Middle East.
  • India.
Brucella Suis

This infection found in wild pigs is the most common type of Brucella seen in the U.S. Brucellosis due to this strain most often occurs in the Southeast and California. It also occurs in Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia especially in India.

Brucella Canis

The infection from this type of bacteria spreads from dogs. It is most often seen in:

  • North, Central, and South America.
  • Japan.
  • Central Europe.

Brucella AbortusThis infection comes from cattle. It occurs worldwide. It has been wiped out in several European countries, Japan, Israel, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Dogs can become infected with Brucella Canis, but the disease is usually mild. There is at least one known case of brucellosis spreading to a human by a dog bite.

One could be infected from dog if he/she come in contact with blood or other fluids from the animal; that’s why veterinarians have an increased risk of brucellosis.

Risk Factors for Brucellosis

In the U.S.A and India, where brucellosis is more common, person who become infected with the disease most often work or have worked around livestock, Eat other unpasteurized cheeses called “village cheeses, Travel to areas where Brucella is common, Work in a meat-processing plant or slaughterhouse or in a farm, hunters etc.

Symptoms of Brucellosis

General symptoms of brucellosis are often vague and similar to the flu. They may include:

  • Fever (the most common symptom, with high “spikes” that usually occur in the afternoon).
  • Back pain.
  • Body-wide aches and pains.
  • Poor appetite and weight loss.
  • Headache.
  • Night sweats.
  • Weakness.
  • Abdominal pain.
  • Cough.

Incubation period that is symptoms usually appear within five to 30 days after contact with the infected animal, person or any other source.

How bad your symptoms are depending on type of Brucella:

  • Brucella Abortus usually causes mild or moderate symptoms, but they are more likely to become chronic (long-lasting).
  • Brucella Canis symptoms may come and go having symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea along with temperature, body aches, lumbago, night sweats, weakness and poor appetite.
  • Brucella Suis may cause areas of infection (abscesses) in different organs/places.
  • Brucella Melitensis may cause sudden and severe symptoms, which may lead to disability.

How Is Brucellosis Diagnosed?

Brucella infections have following symptoms:

  • Hepatomegaly (liver swelling)
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • splenomegaly (swollen spleen)
  • Unexplained fever
  • Joint swelling and pain
  • Body rashes

Blood tests will be done to diagnose the infection and determine what type of Brucella is the cause of sickness (Proper identification of the bacteria helps pinpoint the source of the infection).

How Is Brucellosis Treated?

Allopathically Brucellosis can be difficult to treat, Antibiotics commonly used in allopathic drugs for 6-8 weeks to treat brucellosis, for example:

  • doxycycline
  • streptomycin
  • ciprofloxacin
  • rifampin
  • sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim
  • tetracycline

P.S: Patient must take the antibiotics for many weeks to prevent the disease from returning, the rate of relapse following treatment is about 5-15% and usually occurs within the first six months after treatment.

What Are the Complications of Brucellosis?

Severe brucellosis may cause:

  • Infection of the central nervous system
  • Endocarditis (infection of the lining of the heart or valves)
  • Liver abscess

Brucellosis can cause long-lasting symptoms that are similar to systemic exertion intolerance disease. SEID is formerly known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

The symptoms can lead to disability. They may include:

Brucellosis in a pregnant woman may lead to:

  • Miscarriage.
  • Birth defects in the baby.

Death from brucellosis is uncommon. Most brucellosis-related deaths are due to endocarditis.
