Leptospirosis: an emerging disease in travellers.

Colleen Lau1, Lee Smythe, Philip Weinstein.   

Abstract

A recent upsurge in leptospirosis in travellers has prompted the following review of the epidemiology of this infection in humans. The available data from the published literature as well as laboratory surveillance were examined to determine the possible causes of the apparent change in epidemiology.
