Objectives
The specific objectives of the study are:
- to investigate the current status of brucellosis prevalence in dairy animals.
- to estimate the current indicative brucellosis prevalence in dairy farmers/workers.
- to identify animal brucellosis associated risk factors
- to identify human brucellosis associated risk factors
Expected output and Benefits
- The participant shall be provided with rapid results of his/her brucellosis status without paying for it.
- The farmer will know the brucellosis condition in his/her farm.
- Family members will be awarded and safeguarded from brucellosis accordingly.
- The community may benefit through improved strategies to control brucellosis.
- Feasible control measures against the disease in animals, as animals are the main source of infection to humans.
- Based on the result and findings, the Ministry of health and respective regional veterinary officers can design and implement feasible control measures against the disease in animals, as animals are the main source of infection to humans.
- Updated information on the study conducted will be published and disseminated.
