Citation Health Council of the Netherlands, Gezondheidsraad. Q fever: risk of transmission via blood or other body material. The Hague: Health Council of the Netherlands/Gezondheidsraad (GR). 2011/15E. 2011 Authors' conclusions At various points in this advisory report, the Committee notes there is a (relative) lack of data, not only on the potential transmission of Q fever via blood transfusion or body materials, but also regarding more basic questions. With regard to the latter, the Committee refers to the diagnosis and treatment of (primarily chronic) Q fever and the results of the already initiated vaccination campaign for Q fever. In closing, the Committee therefore makes recommendations for further research.
