This bacterium causes Q fever which does occur sporadically in cattle causing late abortions and stillbirths. It is found worldwide (except in New Zealand). Diagnosis is best by histopathology and staining with a modified ZN stain. The organism is spread in milk, placenta, urine and faeces, and is zoonotic. At the time of writing there is no cattle vaccine but there is a vaccine for goats.
