类鼻疽于2003年在巴西东北部首次被发现。塞阿拉其他地区最近病例中2003年聚集性病例的确认、类鼻疽伯克霍尔德氏菌的环境隔离、分子确认和分型结果以及阳性血清监测标本表明，在巴西东北部，鼻疽比以前认为的更为广泛。
Melioidosis was first recognized in northeastern Brazil in 2003. Confirmation of additional cases from the 2003 cluster in Ceara more recent cases in other districts, environmental isolation of Burkholderia pseudomallei, molecular confirmation and typing results, and positive serosurveillance specimens indicate that meliodosis is more widespread in northeastern Brazil than previously thought.
