Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 in Agricultural Fair Livestock, United States
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006 Agricultural fairs exhibiting livestock are increasingly implicated in human Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (STEC O157:H7) outbreaks. To estimate livestock STEC O157:H7 prevalence at US fairs, we collected 2,919 fecal specimens at 29 county ...
