Pathogenesis

PATHOGENESIS
  • The mode of transmission and mechanism of infection is not known.
  • No evidence of animal-to-animal, animal to man and man-to-man transmission.
  • It is however probable that injury plays a part in determining infection and that infection is sometimes from airborne soil particles.
  • Inhalation of contaminated dust may also be a mode of transmission.
