During the last century many calves and cows with Salmonella dublin infections are diagnosed in the North of the Netherlands, especially in the province of Friesland. In this paper are retrospectively traced the problems by paratyphoid infections in cattle, from 1919 till now, the diagnosis of which was made at the Animal Health Service in Friesland and North-Netherlands. Over the decennia a decrease is noticed for the percentage of necropsies of calves with S. dublin infections, although some irregular peaks appear. However since 1988 an increase is observed in dairy farms with S. dublin problems, revealing high mortality in calves, abortions and sick cows.
