Babesiosis is a worldwide emerging tick-borne disease that is increasing in frequency and geographic range. It imposes a significant health burden, especially on those who are immunocompromised and those who acquire the infection through blood transfusion. Death from babesiosis occurs in up to 20 percent of these groups.

Immunoresponsiveness in Acute Babesiosis in Humans
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1982Immunoresponsiveness in patients with acute babesiosis was characterized. Lymphocyte subpopulations, mononuclear cell responses to nonspecific mitogens, and serum immunochemical values were studied in patients during acute babesiosis and after recovery (four to 40 months), controls, and seropositive individuals.

Human Case of Piroplasmosis (Babesiosis)
