Undulant Fever
Not Always Easy
to Diagnose

OuuuldHI reNeT
Not Always Easy
to Diagnose
By HERMAN NJ. BUNDEsEN. NJ. l
CERTAIN infections, when
they first start, cause severe
symptoms, such rs fever, head.
ache, sickness to the stomach and
vomiting. Then, after the infection
continues for q long time or be-
comes chronic, the symptoms be
come less severe but still may be
disabling. One Of the infections
which may act in this way is un-
dulant fever or brucellosis. This
disorder is caused by q germ
known as the Brucells sbortus.
The symptoms Of chronic pru-
eellosis, according to Doctor Eric
Lehr Of East st. Louis, are much
like that Of tuberculosis. There are
slight fever which may persist for
weeks or months, weakness, tired
ness, loss Of weight and, often, in
fiammation Of the joints Of the
spine. Lymph glands also may be-
come enlarged and tender.
Hard to Diagnose
The condition Is not always an
easy one TO diagnose. However,
there are various laboratory tests
which are used that may be Of
help. For example, there is q skin
test which is made by injecting
killed Brucella abortus germs into
the upper layer Of the skin. II the
test is positive, a red swelling
occurs at the point Of the injection.
A positive test means that m in
lection has been present, but may
have been cleared up. In other
words, the skin test may be posi-
tive, even though no symptoms Of
brucellosis are present
The most accurate test is TO find
the germs Of the disease in the
blood. However, in the chronic
eases, such q positive blood culture
often cannot be obtained. The mere
fact that these tests are negative
does not mean that the patient il
not suffering from brueellosis.
Infected Milk
Bruceilosis Is contracted for the
most part by the drinking Of milk
from infected animals, which has
not been pasteurized. So, in other
words, getting rid Of the disease
in animals will keep II from beir,y
contracted by human beings. Doc
tor Lehr recommends that all ami
mails be tested for the presence Of
brucellosis. II they are found to
have the disease they should be
slaughtered. OF course, meat cut
tiers and packing house employees
who viii come in contact with in
fected animals must be taught how
to handle them properly.
The next important step Is TO en-
force the proper pasteurization of
milk. When milk is treated In this
way, the germs which produce bru-
cellosis are destroyed. Because
chronic brueellosis is becoming
more common and can result in so
much disability 1t Is important
that these measures be established.
