Bacterial Infections in Humans and Nonhuman Primates from Africa: Expanding the Knowledge

Contact between humans and NHPs results in an exchange of pathogens. Ongoing surveillance, prevention, and treatment strategies alone will limit the spread of these infectious agents.PMID:34211344 | PMC:PMC8223552
