pneumonia (Legionaires); Pontiac fever; spreads through AC towers, aerosol spread
intracellular pathogen
Brucella species
comes from contaminated milk and direct contact with goats, cows, pigs, and dogs; causes undulant fever; Bang's disease, and Malta fever
intracelluar pathogen, inhibits phagosome lysosome fusion
Francisella species
comes from rabbits, cats, rodents, ticks, and rarely meat; causes tularemia which presents as fever, chills, and malaise and may lead to skin lesions or ocular complications depending on the form of disease
not given
