Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Scrub typhus is a common cause of undiagnosed febrile illness in certain tropical regions, but can be easily treated with antibiotics. The causative agent, Orientia tsutsugamushi, is antigenically variable which complicates diagnosis and efforts towards vaccine development. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: This study aimed to dissect the antigenic and genetic relatedness of O. tsutsugamushi strains and...
