  • Title: Bat-associated histoplasmosis can be transmitted at entrances of bat caves and not only inside the caves.
    Author: Jülg B, Elias J, Zahn A, Köppen S, Becker-Gaab C, Bogner JR.
    Journal: J Travel Med; 2008; 15(2):133-6. PubMed ID: 18346250.
    Abstract:
    Our observation of histoplasmosis cases augments the current knowledge on transmission by bats. In the presented cases, the only contact happened in the proximity of a bat cave but not inside the cave. We wish to communicate and stress that even outside of caves, bats may disperse the organism.
