Canine Spotted Fever Group Rickettsial Seroprevalence as an Indicator for Human Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Case Rates in Arizona, USA

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 8, Page 697-705, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), a rapidly progressing febrile disease caused by the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii, is the deadliest tick‐borne disease in the world. Human infection initially results in non‐specific symptoms and, if untreated, can result in death in up to 35% of cases.
