Anthrax remains a threat, especially in countries like Kyrgyzstan with developed livestock farming. Despite preventive efforts, sporadic outbreaks endure on an annual basis, transmitted from infected animals to humans. Here, we report a severe anthrax case in an 8-month-old child known to be caused when a sick calf was slaughtered in the neighborhood without proper protocols, resulting in intra-family infection. This underscores the importance of swift diagnosis, treatment, preventive measures, and awareness of zoonotic infections, animal vaccination and adherence to sanitary and veterinary protocols.
炭疽仍然是一种威胁，特别是在吉尔吉斯斯坦这样畜牧业发达的国家。尽管采取了预防措施，但每年仍有零星疫情爆发，由受感染动物传播给人类。在此，我们报告一例8个月大儿童的严重炭疽病例，已知是由于附近一头病牛未经适当规程宰杀，导致家庭内部感染。这凸显了快速诊断、治疗、预防措施以及对人畜共患感染的认识、动物疫苗接种和遵守卫生及兽医规程的重要性。
