Objective. To analyze the epizootological and epidemic situation of feral herd infections (FHIs) that are relevant for the Caucasian Mineral Waters (CMW) Region of the Stavropol Territory in 2017–2021.
Materials and methods. Ticks and small mammals were examined by molecular genetic, biological, and serological methods. A morbidity analysis used the maps of an epidemiological survey of the focus of an infectious disease, which had been provided by the Directorate for the Stavropol Territory, Russian Federal Service for Supervision of Customer Rights Protection and Human Well-Being. The data were statistically analyzed using a Microsoft Office Excel 2010 program.
Results. The causative agents of bacterial FHIs (Ixodes tick-borne borreliosis, tularemia, granulocytic anaplasmosis, and human monocytic ehrlichiosis), rickettsial (Q fever, pathogens of the tick-borne spotted fever group), and viral (Crimean hemorrhagic fever (CHF), hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome) infections circulate in the territory of the CMW Region of the Stavropol Territory. Most of the patients with Lyme borreliosis identified in the Stavropol Territory are annually registered in the CMW Region.
Conclusion. Constant monitoring of the implementation of preventive measures based on the results of epidemiological prediction is required to stabilize the epizootic and epidemic situation in the CMW Region.
