Knowledge, attitudes, and practices among livestock owners, traders, and slaughterhouse inspectors in Cameroon reveals marginal understanding of livestock and human brucellosis

This study provides insights into animal and public health risks and aims to aid policymakers in developing interventions to reduce the disease burden.
