"Tuberculosis (TB) in humans is often produced as a consequence of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, followed in number of cases by Mycobacterium bovis, that also causes bovine TB. M. tuberculosis is predominantly a human pathogen causing active TB in approximately eight million people every year, and on the other hand, M. bovis has the ability to infect a broader host range including domestic and wild animals. M. bovis can cause pathology in cattle and humans as well, yet rarely transmits between immuno-competent human hosts. Some reports have suggested an increase in the number cases of human TB caused by M. bovis, where probably inadequate disease control measures in animals and humans, a rise in the incidence of immunosuppressive diseases, and the close physical contact between humans and animals facilitate the transmission of M. bovis from animals to human hosts [1]". | |
