[Epidemiologic hazards of bovine tuberculosis for inhabitants of Northern regions of Kazakh SSR].
One of the main reasons of low decrease in the epidemiologic data on tuberculosis in the Republic is represented by an additional huge reservoir of tuberculous infection transmitted by the tuberculosis-infected cattle of which 90% reside in the areas of the Northern Kazakhstan. As a consequence, a high tuberculosis morbidity of the rural population of the Region, and its cattle breeders in particular, having threefold morbidity rates compared to other occupational groups, is recorded. The emphasis is made on the importance of the joint and concordant efforts of medical and veterinary workers to identity tuberculosis-infected population and animals, and to organize antituberculous activities in the identified foci to bring down an epidemiological risk of the tuberculosis infected cattle.
