Question

A cattle herder is rushed to hospital presenting with symptoms that resemble those of a common cold or flu, including sore throat, mild fever and muscle aches. The symptoms were followed by chest discomfort, dry cough, shortness of breath and fatigue. Shortly thereafter, the patient started wheezing with cyanosis, shock and an onset of meningitis. A chest X-ray and computed tomography (CT) of the chest show a widened mediastinum, pleural effusions, and pulmonary infiltrates. After a thorough follow up at the farm where the herder works, several cattle were reported to have had a rapid onset of staggering and trembling, breathing difficulty and convulsion that led to death.
