<i>Sporothrix brasiliensis</i> as the major causative species of the zoonotic outbreak of human sporotrichosis in the Brazilian Amazon
Sporothrix brasiliensis is the dominant species in the zoonotic outbreak of human sporotrichosis in the Brazilian Amazon, with cats identified as the primary vectors. Effective sanitary control measures, education and responsible pet ownership are crucial to mitigating zoonotic sporotrichosis' impact in Brazil and preventing its spread to neighbouring Latin American cities.
