Abstract

Ornithosis was suggested by a routine analysis of tissue specimens from Texas turkey flocks submitted to the Texas A&M University Poultry Disease Laboratory at Gonzales on April 30, 1974, and of subsequent specimens from four additional flocks. Subsequently, illness in humans at turkey processing plants in Texas, Nebraska, and Missouri, implicating turkeys from Texas, was confirmed as ornithosis in July 1974; and, associated with this outbreak, ornithosis was suspected as the cause of the death of one human. Action was taken by state and federal poultry disease control and inspection officials, public health agencies, and the turkey industry in Texas.

摘要

1974年4月30日提交给位于冈萨雷斯的得克萨斯农工大学家禽疾病实验室的来自得克萨斯州火鸡群的组织标本，以及随后来自另外四个鸡群的标本，经常规分析提示存在鸟疫。随后，得克萨斯州、内布拉斯加州和密苏里州火鸡加工厂的人类患病情况，涉及来自得克萨斯州的火鸡，于1974年7月被确认为鸟疫；并且，与此次疫情相关，怀疑鸟疫是一名人类死亡的原因。得克萨斯州的州和联邦家禽疾病控制与检查官员、公共卫生机构以及火鸡行业采取了行动。
