Fish: a potential source of bacterial pathogens for human beings

Abstract: ABSTRACT:Human infections caused by pathogens transmi�ed from fish or the aquatic environment are quite common and depend on the season, patients' contact with fish and related environment, dietary habits and the immune system status of the exposed individual. They are o�en bacterial species facultatively pathogenic for both fish and human beings and may be isolated from fish without apparent symptoms of the disease. The infection source may be fish kept for both for food and as a hobby.

“…Human infections caused by microorganisms transmitted by fish or an aquatic environment are quite common, depending on the season, the patient's contact with fish or the environment, dietary habits, and the immune system status of the exposed individual [1]. Infection rates often peak after storms, floods, or sewage spills that transfer contaminated effluent to aquatic ecosystems [2].…”
