Besides the main transmission route via inhalation of contaminated aerosols, ticks are …

Reptiles are reservoirs of a wide range of pathogens, including many protozoa, helminths,
pentastomids, and arthropod parasitic species, some of which may be of public health …

Reptile vector-borne diseases (RVBDs) of zoonotic concern are caused by bacteria,
protozoa and viruses transmitted by arthropod vectors, which belong to the subclass Acarina …

Background There are many studies present in literature performed to isolate CCHFV from
ticks. However, gaps in knowledge for estimating global annual CCHFV infection rates; …

The Hyalomma species of ticks have gained additional attention due to their role in the
transmission of Theileria annulata infection in animals and the Crimean-Congo …

Abstract Purpose of Review Zoonotic infections are a major public health issue, but reptiles
are generally overlooked as sources of zoonoses compared with other classes of vertebrate …

Current and likely future changes in the geographic distribution of ticks belonging to the
genus Hyalomma are of concern, as these ticks are believed to be vectors of many …

Simple Summary The risk of transmission of pathogen-infected ticks by dogs and cats
transported by humans has increased substantially in recent decades due to the rise in …

Background Q fever is a widespread zoonotic disease caused by Coxiella burnetii. Ticks
