Tularemia, Second Edition

by Susan Hutton Siderovski and Christine Adamec

Description

“Rabbit fever,” otherwise known as tularemia, is transmitted mostly through blood-sucking insects, including fleas, ticks, and deer flies. The contributing bacterium for this disease, Francisella tularensis, was once commonly hosted by rabbits, but these insects have taken over the role of carriers. In Tularemia, Second Edition, students will learn about the symptoms of this disease, as well as the effects, treatment options, history, and carriers while examining specific case studies.
