A combined case-control and molecular source attribution study of human Campylobacter infections in Germany, 2011–2014
Abstract Campylobacter infection is the most commonly notified bacterial enteritis in Germany. We performed a large combined case-control and source attribution study (Nov 2011-Feb 2014) to identify risk factors for sporadic intestinal Campylobacter infections and to determine the relative importanc...
