CLINICAL AND LABORATORY CHARACTERISTICS OF TICK-BORNED RICKETTSIOSIS RELATED TO RICKETTSIA SIBIRICA AND "CANDIDATUS RICKETTSIA TARASEVICHIAE"

The Siberian tick-borne typhus (STT) is the most common tick-borne rickettsiosis (TBR) in Russia, registered in 17 administrative territories of the Southern Siberia and the Far East. The aim of this study was to describe clinical picture, pathological data and the results of laboratory diagnostics...
