Zoonotic risks for human leptospirosis in Kaski District, Nepal
Leptospirosis is a recognised problem in Nepal, but very little information currently exists about the extent of this disease in Nepalese human and animal populations. This study aims to evaluate the major mammalian and environmental sources of infection for people by determining the distribution of Leptospira serovars in people and animals in Kaski district Nepal, where the disease is known to occur regularly.
