T1 - Human Mycobacterium bovis Infection and Bovine Tuberculosis Outbreak, Michigan, 1994–2007 T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2008 VL - 14 IS - 4 SP - 657 SN - 1080-6059 AB - Mycobacterium bovis is endemic in Michigan’s white-tailed deer and has been circulating since 1994. The strain circulating in deer has remained genotypically consistent and was recently detected in 2 humans. We summarize the investigation of these cases and confirm that recreational exposure to deer is a risk for infection in humans.
