The epidemiology of brucellosis among humans and animals is well-characterized. Preventive measures for the diseases are well known; yet, applying this knowledge in resource-poor countries remains a constant challenge. Having effective health education programs is a vital component in efforts to reduce the disease burden by reducing the animal-to-human transmission rate. (3) an isolated case, uninvolved in recent transmission (i.e., neither source nor recipient). Source and secondary cases require more intense intervention due to their involvement in a chain of transmission; thus, accurate and rapid classification of new patients should help public health personnel to effectively prioritize control activities. However, the currently accepted method for classification, DNA fingerprint analysis, takes many weeks to produce the results (1); therefore, public health personnel often solely rely on their intuition to identify the case who is most likely to be involved in transmission.
