Human granulocytic anaplasmosis is currently not nationally notifiable in Canada. This for the most part accounts for gross under-estimation of true incidence and prevalence of HGA and would potentially culminate in clinical missed opportunities. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the seroprevalence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in a Canadian jurisdiction with known established black-legged tick populations.
人粒细胞无形体病目前在加拿大不属于全国法定报告疾病。在很大程度上，这导致了对人粒细胞无形体病真实发病率和患病率的严重低估，并可能最终造成临床诊断的遗漏。据我们所知，这是加拿大一个已知有黑腿蜱种群的管辖区内关于嗜吞噬细胞无形体血清流行率的首份报告。
