Ixodid ticks collected in the Armenian SSR during 1971 and 1974 were positive for rickettsiae of the spotted fever group, as confirmed by haemocyte tests and by isolation experiments. Serum specimens collected from human beings and from domestic and wild animals in the same areas contained antibodies against such rickettsiae and against Coxiella burnetii. These results indicate the existence of mixed natural foci of rickettsioses of the spotted fever group and of Q fever in the Armenian SSR.
1971年至1974年期间在亚美尼亚苏维埃社会主义共和国采集的硬蜱,经血细胞试验和分离实验证实,感染了斑点热群立克次体。在同一地区采集的人类、家畜和野生动物的血清样本中含有抗此类立克次体和抗伯氏考克斯氏体的抗体。这些结果表明,在亚美尼亚苏维埃社会主义共和国存在斑点热群立克次体病和Q热的混合自然疫源地。
