It is spread mechanically either by flies or ticks, or by direct inoculation. It is characterized by fever and tubercle-like nodule formations in the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes. In man the disease takes the form of a slow fever, lasting several weeks, with much malaise and depression, followed by considerable emaciation. Source: European Union. (references) |
