The symptoms of the disease, also called “Balkan flu”, are similar to those of coronavirus – fever, respiratory problems and coughing. More than 20 people have contracted Q fever – veterinary doctors and staff at three sheep and cow farms. The disease is transmitted from animals to humans and is usually endemic and seasonal. When diagnosed early, Q fever is treated successfully. After recovery the organism acquired long-lasting immunity.
