RESUMO
The data on leptospirosis morbidity among agricultural animals and humans in the Stavropol Territory for the last 10 years, as well as the serological picture of the causative agent of leptospirosis, are presented. The epidemiological importance of the main risk factors and their influence on the development and manifestations of the epidemic process are substantiated. As revealed in this investigation, the professional character of leptospirosis morbidity among humans has been almost completely lost under modern conditions, which requires further study with a view to the development of the rational complex of prophylactic measures.
