Bordatella Flashcards

1
Q
  • He reported having adopted a new kitten 3 weeks prior to
    the onset of his symptoms. The kitten had not received any
    prior vaccinations. The kitten had manifested symptoms of
    conjunctivitis as well as respiratory symptoms with
    intermittent gagging, and was seen by their veterinarian
    and treated with antibiotics with resolution of its
    symptoms. Patients receiving temozolomide should be
    counseled on the risks of acquiring zoonotic infections from
    their pets.
