Article Synopsis
- The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) includes pathogens responsible for both human and bovine tuberculosis (TB), with increasing recognition of human-to-cattle transmission over recent years.
- Several notable cases in the U.S. demonstrate this transmission, including a North Dakota dairy employee whose TB infection was linked to bTB in the herd through genome sequencing.
- These incidents underscore the need for a comprehensive One Health approach, combining efforts from various sectors to address the risks of MTBC transmission from humans to livestock.
