PY - 2020 DA - 2020/03/30 TI - Local and regional temporal trends (2013–2019) of canine Ehrlichia spp. seroprevalence in the USA JO - Parasites & Vectors SP - 153 VL - 13 IS - 1 AB - In the USA, there are several Ehrlichia spp. of concern including Ehrlichia canis, Ehrlichia ewingii, Ehrlichia chaffeensis, Ehrlichia muris eauclarensis, and “Panola Mountain Ehrlichia”. Of these, E. canis is considered the most clinically relevant for domestic dogs, with infection capable of causing acute, subclinical, and chronic stages of disease. Changes in climate, land use, habitats, and wildlife reservoir populations, and increasing contact between both human and dog populations with natural areas have resulted in the increased risk of vector-borne disease throughout the world.
