However, bovine brucellosis has not been present from 2005 to date on Jeju Island. Despite Jeju Island being considered a clean area for bovine brucellosis, we experienced an outbreak of human brucellosis between 2012 and 2013. Herein, we report cases with human brucellosis after ingestion of raw materials of fetal calf at a restaurant. Patients were identified by isolation of the <jats:italic>Brucella abortus<\/jats:italic> in their blood and joint tissue. Because all patients developed zoonosis by a faulty folk remedy, we emphasize the importance of educational programs to increase the awareness of zoonosis, and the need for active surveillance and detection of illegal distribution channels of the infected animal. After the outbreak, we took control of the involved restaurant and its illegal distribution channel, and there have been no further outbreaks.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.14-0399","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,16]],"date-time":"2014-12-16T05:32:38Z","timestamp":1418707958000},"page":"267-269","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Foodborne
