Leptospirosis is a common zoonosis present throughout Missouri. Previously regarded as an occupational illness of farmers and sewer workers, it is now primarily acquired from exposure to water polluted with the bacteria Leptospira. We present a case report of leptospirosis acquired through kayaking and review both the disease and the risk factor associated with kayaking.
钩端螺旋体病是密苏里州普遍存在的一种人畜共患病。以前被认为是农民和下水道工人的职业病，现在主要是通过接触被钩端螺旋体细菌污染的水而感染。我们报告一例通过皮划艇运动感染钩端螺旋体病的病例，并对该病以及与皮划艇运动相关的危险因素进行综述。
