| Popis: | Molecular genetic monitoring of natural focal of tick-borne infections in the epidemic season of 2018 revealed infectiousness of ixodid ticks causative agents of tick-borne encephalitis (0.58% of cases), Lyme disease (31% of cases), human monocytic ehrlichiosis (1.6% of cases) and granulocytic anaplasmosis (3.9% of cases) is registered and also co-infections of ticks by these infections (2.9% of cases) is revealed in natural and anthropourgic foci (B. burgdorferi s.l.+A. phagocytophilum, B. burgdorferi s.l.+E. chaffeensis/E. muris and B. burgdorferi s.l.+tick-borne encephalitis virus). The major epidemiological importance of ticks of the species I. persulcatus is found, their share being 87,6%. The majority of patients being bitten by a tick were from the southern and southeast areas of Primorye. Contamination of ticks with Borrelia was revealed not only in I. persulcatus, but also in ticks of the Haemaphysalis and Dermacentor. The infectiousness of ticks of B. burgdorferi s.l. (42,3%), tick-borne encephalitis virus (7,7%) and A. phagocytophilum (15,4%) was highest on Russky Island. |
