Popis:	We examined seroconversion rates by measuring IgG antibodies against Coxiella burnetii among two cohorts of veterinary students. During follow-up of 118 seronegative veterinary students, 23 students seroconverted. Although the clinical significance of the presence of antibodies is unknown, students should be informed about the potential risks of Q fever.
