Ehrlichiosis
Ehrlichiosis is an infectious disease transmitted by the bite of a tick.
Ehrlichiosis is caused by bacteria that belong to the family called Rickettsiae. Rickettsial bacteria cause a number of serious diseases worldwide, including Rocky Mountain spotted fever and typhus. All of these diseases are spread to humans by a tick, flea, or mite bite. Scientists first described ehrlichiosis in 1990, and have identified two types in the United States.
