Issue Date: | 2005 | Publisher: | 1080-6040 | Journal: | Emerging Infectious Diseases | Abstract: | We report the first cases of human infection by Rickettsia felis in the Canary Islands. Antibodies against R. felis were found in 5 adsorbed serum samples from 44 patients with clinically suspected rickettsiosis by Western blot serology. Fleas from 1 patient's dog were positive for R. felis by polymerase chain reaction. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/54380 | ISSN: | 1080-6040 | DOI: | 10.3201/eid1112.050711 | Source: | Emerging Infectious Diseases[ISSN 1080-6040],v. 11, p. 1961-1964 |
