English
Authors' recommendations:
At various points in this advisory report, the Committee notes there is a (relative) lack of data, not only on the potential transmission of Q fever via blood transfusion or body materials, but also regarding more basic questions. With regard to the latter, the Committee refers to the diagnosis and treatment of (primarily chronic) Q fever and the results of the already initiated vaccination campaign for Q fever. In closing, the Committee therefore makes recommendations for further research.
