A serological survey of zoonotic infections in Yakutia
https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2021.75.03
Abstract
The article analyzes the outcomes of three field surveys concerning the seroepidemiology of various zoonoses in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia). These studies were carried out from 2007 to 2018 in Artic (Verkhoyansk area) and subarctic (Vilyuysk area then Central Yakutia) regions. The first major finding was the presence of Lyme borreliosis in both Vilyuysk and Verkhoyansk areas. Then an elevated incidence rate of Q fever was revealed in the Verkhoyansk area. The seroprevalence of toxocariasis and food-borne trichinellosis was remarkably low in the three surveyed places. Finally, the epidemiological status of echinococcoses, alveolar and cystic must be clarified in the course of further research on the etiology of these zoonoses, rather high seropositivity rates require further clinical and epidemiological studies of these parasitic infections in Yakutia.
