Rickettsia an Overview
View through CrossRef
A diverse collection of organisms, maintained in nature through a cycle involving reservoir inammals and arthropod vectors.Rickettsial diseases are largely unmeasured but quite high worldwide.Diseases caused by Rickettsia and Orientia species are collectively called RickettsiosesAll rickettsioses exist as zoonoses.Moreover, all rickettsiae are found in infected arthopods, which generally serve as the natural hosts and can transmit the infection to the next generation of ticks, mites, chiggers, or fleas.Greater clinical awareness and high index of suspicion are the key factors.
Title: Rickettsia an Overview
Description:
A diverse collection of organisms, maintained in nature through a cycle involving reservoir inammals and arthropod vectors.
Rickettsial diseases are largely unmeasured but quite high worldwide.
Diseases caused by Rickettsia and Orientia species are collectively called RickettsiosesAll rickettsioses exist as zoonoses.
Moreover, all rickettsiae are found in infected arthopods, which generally serve as the natural hosts and can transmit the infection to the next generation of ticks, mites, chiggers, or fleas.
Greater clinical awareness and high index of suspicion are the key factors.
