Arthropod-borne disease in Canada: A clinician's perspective from the 'Cold Zone'.

H Artsob1.   

Abstract

Arthropod-borne diseases do not occur commonly in Canada. Nevertheless, Canadians run the risk of contracting certain infections within the country during arthropod season, as well as when travelling abroad. Therefore, it is important that clinicians are aware of the possible occurrence of arthropod-borne diseases, and consider them in their differential diagnoses. The present review is divided into two sections: arthropod-borne diseases or disease agents documented in Canada, and imported arthropod-borne diseases. The review also provides brief overviews of these diseases.
