Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The abundance of tick populations in South Africa represents a probable risk for both animal and human health. <italic>Rickettsia</italic> spp. and <italic>Borrelia</italic> spp. are well-known significant agents of emerging human tick-borne infectious diseases throughout the world. Nevertheless, the epidemiology of their infections has been underreported in South Africa, therefore, the...
