Abstract
We report an outbreak of brucellosis among 9 patients in a meat-packing plant. All patients developed chronic brucellosis characterized by severe chronic musculoskeletal pains, diffuse arthralgia, myalgia and recurrent bouts of fever, which we suggest may be related to a delay in antibiotic treatment. All the patients had a prolonged recovery requiring rehabilitation therapy.
