Abstract: Introduction Neoehrlichia mikurensis is a tick-borne bacterium that primarily causes disease in immunocompromised patients. The bacterium has been detected in ticks throughout Europe, with a 0%–25% prevalence. N. mikurensis infection presents unspecific symptoms, which can… read more here.
