First, it is possible that the seropositive dogs in this study had occult infections.
On a few occasions, a moderate proportion of seropositive growers was less apparent or even absent in the subsequent sampling round among finishers.
Herds were also four times more likely to be classified seropositive based on the serological profile of finishers compared to growers.
Larger animals have a higher probability of being seropositive.
This was indicated by the high proportion of seropositive rabbits in the final sampling.
This applied both to those that were seropositive when first captured and those that seroconverted after their first capture.

Most of these patients had been in contact with seropositive animals or have been professionally associated with animals or animal products.
