Eliminating leprosy as a public health problem--is the optimism justified?

Systematic use of multidrug therapy has proved to be so effective that leprosy can be eliminated as a public health problem by the end of the century. However, because of the long incubation period of this disease, together with the time-lag in case detection, the factors involved in achieving and sustaining its elimination have to be very carefully defined.

[Botulism in cattle in a loose housing following the use of litter from a broiler farm (author's transl)].

An outbreak of type C botulism in cattle is reported, which was caused by the fact that litter from a broiler farm, in which a large number of toxic carcases had been present, had been used as a bedding in the cubicles. There is evidence to suggest that there is a relationship with the large number of cases of type C botulism in waterfowl in the Netherlands in recent years.
