Seroprevalence of Coxiella burnetii in selected populations of domestic ruminants in Newfoundland

The seroprevalence of Coxiella burnetii among cattle, sheep, and goats in Newfoundland was determined by microimmunofluorescence. Seropositivity to phase II antigen increased in sheep from 3.1% in 1997 to 23.5% in 1999–2000 (P < 0.001). Cows (24%) had antibodies to phase I antigen; goats (15.6%)...
