Objective. To analyze the incidence of tick-borne infections (TBI) in the south of Russia in 2014 to 2018 and the features of manifestations of the epidemic process.
Materials and methods. The investigators used data from the epidemiological examination schedules for an infectious disease focus and from the feral nidal infectious disease reports submitted by the Departments of the Russian Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Well-Being and the Centers of Hygiene and Epidemiology in the subjects of the Southern and North Caucasian Federal Districts.
Results. Six nosological entities of TBIs are registered in the south of Russia every year; two of them (Crimean hemorrhagic fever and tick-borne encephalitis virus infection) have a viral etiology. Four other infections (Ixodes tick-borne borreliosis, Astrakhan spotted fever, Q fever, rickettsial tick-borne spotted fever from the Mediterranean spotted fever group) have a bacterial etiology.
Conclusion. It has been noted that there is a wider range of pathogens of TBI and an annual rise in its incidence, by involving people of all age groups, including young children, in the epidemic process. There is a substantial increase in the duration of the epidemic season for most TBIs due to favorable weather and climate conditions for tick activity.
Keywords: subjects of the south of Russia, nosological entity, tick-borne transmissible infections, epidemic process, morbidity
