Fiebre Q

Nombres alternativos:

Fiebre de Query

Prevención:

Las personas que se encuentran en riesgo de contraer la enfermedad, como los granjeros y los veterinarios, deben siempre eliminar por completo los productos animales potencialmente infecciosos y desinfectar cualquier área contaminada, lo cual incluye lavarse bien las manos

La pasteurización de la leche también puede ayudar a prevenir la fiebre Q y el tratamiento oportuno puede impedir que la fiebre inicial se vuelva crónica.
