das ist eine grafik aus einer neuen studie über erregervorkommen in zecken, die von hunden in berlin und brandenburg abgesammelt wurden.
DNA von rickettsien wurden in 61% aller zecken gefunden !!!
in kombi mit borrelien (bei ixodes ricinus) ca. 10%.

aus dem volltext der studie:
Due to their extremely high prevalence in ticks, Rickettsia spp. are presumably the most important tick-transmitted pathogens. However, concerning the Rickettsia species found in German ticks no data regarding the clinical importance in dogs are available yet.
The unexpectedly high frequency of Rickettsia spp. in ticks from Berlin is [i]particularly important, because of their potential pathogenicity in humans, as described in previous studies [/i]
