Surveillance and Risk Analysis for Bovine Babesiosis in England and Wales to Inform Disease Distribution

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Babesia divergens is a zoonotic piroplasm that infects both cattle and humans in Europe. Disease transmission occurs through Ixodes ricinus tick bites, a species that is increasing in abundance and distribution across Europe in response to climate and ...

Seroepidemiology of Bovine Babesiosis due to Babesia divergens in Tunisia

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2004
Babesia divergens was recently isolated in Tunisia from a bovine of local breed. A serological and parasitic survey was conducted in seven sites, where biotopes were favorable to Ixodes ricinus. Results confirmed the presence of Babesia in several herds.
