“…For instance, only the cost of vaccination represents additional several million Reais since in 2011 approximately 11.8 million cattle have been vaccinated in Brazil (OIE 2012). Furthermore, possible human infections due to bovine brucellosis have not been precisely assessed in Brazil, where there are scarce reports of human infections, although it has been clearly identified a significant human health issue among risk occupational groups in Brazil (Ramos et al 2008) since the country is free of Brucella melitensis, which reduces the risk of human brucellosis (Poester et al 2002). Although underreported, human brucellosis in Brazil certainly represents an additional economic burden due to medial costs, although and most importantly, human infections have a major social impact due to decreased productivity and quality of life, and occasionally incapacitation or death.…”

“…O presente estudo foi realizado utilizando amostras de soro coletadas para um levantamento epidemiológico desenhado para avaliar a prevalência de brucelose (Paulin & Neto 2002, Poester et al 2002. Sobre estas foi efetuado um novo cálculo amostral baseado em uma expectativa de prevalência de infecções por BoHV-1 e BoHV-5 da ordem de 33%, considerando um erro padrão não superior a 1% e um intervalo de confiança de 95%, calculado segundo Noordhuizen et al (1997).…”
