The flock was kept in groups of approximately 40 ewes, which were housed together in the same accommodation. The prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>C burnetii<\/jats:italic>\n                    infection in the groups was investigated by using\n                    <jats:sc>ELISA<\/jats:sc>\n                    and\n                    <jats:sc>PCR<\/jats:sc>\n                    tests, which revealed a high prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>C burnetii<\/jats:italic>\n                    . The ewes were treated with oxytetracycline to reduce the shedding of\n                    <jats:italic>C burnetii<\/jats:italic>\n                    and to prevent further abortions. Nevertheless, five abortions attributed to\n                    <jats:italic>C burnetii<\/jats:italic>\n                    occurred in January and March 1999\u00a0in three groups of ewes, and 24 of the ewes still shed the bacteria into their vaginal tracts. In addition, a serological study was carried out during the first year of life of the female lambs born in 1999 and 2000; 12 per cent of 113 lambs born in 1999 were seropositive for\n                    <jats:italic>C burnetii<\/jats:italic>\n                    by\n                    <jats:sc>ELISA<\/jats:sc>\n                    , and half of the\n                    <jats:sc>ELISA<\/jats:sc>\n                    \u2010positive lambs were born either to serologically positive ewes or to dams that excreted the pathogen into their vaginal tracts.
