Epidemiologic, Clinical and Immunological Consequences of Co-Infections during Canine Leishmaniosis
Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a vector-borne, parasitic disease. CanL is endemic in the Mediterranean basin and South America but also found in Northern Africa, Asia, and the U.S. Regions with both competent sand fly vectors and <i>L. infantum</i> parasites are also endemic for addition...
