The paper analyzes the data of serological monitoring of the community immunity to the pathogens of feral herd infections among the population of 34 municipal districts of Tatarstan. The subject of the investigation was the incidence rates of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, tick-borne encephalitis, Ixodes tick-borne borreliosis, West Nile fever, monocytic ehrlichiosis, and human granulocytic anaplasmosis in the Republic of Tatarstan as a whole and in its individual areas versus serological monitoring data. Combined nosoareas of feral herd infections were identified in a number of districts in the Republic. The serological monitoring data showed the intensity of a latent epidemic process of monocytic erlichiosis, human granulocytic anaplasmosis, and West Nile fever. This investigation considerably expanded the idea of the area of feral herd infections as both the most common and frequently studied infections (hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, borreliosis, tick-borne viral encephalitis) and little studied and less common (West Nile fever, monocytic ehrlichiosis, human granulocytic anaplasmosis) ones.
Keywords: seropositivity, feral herd infections, serological monitoring, epidemiological surveillance, morbidity
