A study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of Dirofilaria tenuis in raccoons from subtropical southern Florida as compared to the northern part of the state. The results indicate that D. tenuis is more prevalent in southern Florida and suggest that this might be why humans suffer from more D. tenuis infections in southern Florida than in other parts of the state.
开展了一项研究，以确定与该州北部相比，来自亚热带佛罗里达州南部浣熊体内杜氏丝虫的流行情况。结果表明，杜氏丝虫在佛罗里达州南部更为普遍，这可能就是为什么佛罗里达州南部人类感染杜氏丝虫的情况比该州其他地区更多的原因。
