CASE OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE IN MAN

Abstract

Foot-and-mouth disease in man is a typical occupational disease of workers who attend cattle. Since even small and unobserved injuries of the skin may constitute an opening through which the germ may penetrate, attention should be paid to the fact that hygienic conditions should be strictly observed, especially with regard to the protection of hands when the worker takes care of cattle which has foot-and-mouth disease.
