A review of emerging flea-borne bacterial pathogens in New Zealand.

Patrick Kelly1, Sally Roberts, Pierre-Edouard Fournier.   

Abstract

Recent studies have shown that Rickettsia typhi, R. felis, Bartonella henselae, and B. clarridgeiae occur in New Zealand. To raise awareness of these emerging and re-emerging flea-borne bacterial pathogens among New Zealand health workers, we review the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of infections, and the biology of the major flea vectors.
