¿Qué es Anaplasmosis?

Human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA) was first recognized as a distinct human disease in the United States in 1990 in Wisconsin and Minnesota. It was initially identified as human granulocytic ehrlichiosis before the causative agent was reclassified. Its discovery highlighted the expanding spectrum of tick-borne diseases affecting humans.

Síntomas

  • Fever (often high, with chills)
  • Headache
  • Muscle aches (myalgia)
  • Fatigue and malaise
  • Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of appetite
  • Joint pain
  • Less common: Cough, abdominal pain, rash (rarely)

Transmisión

Anaplasmosis is primarily transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected tick. In the United States, the **blacklegged tick** (*Ixodes scapularis*) is the main vector in the Northeast and Midwest, and the **western blacklegged tick** (*Ixodes pacificus*) on the Pacific coast. Ticks acquire the bacteria by feeding on infected animals such as white-footed mice and other small mammals, then transmit it during subsequent blood meals.

Período de Contagio: Varies by disease

Prevención

  • Avoid tick-infested areas, especially during peak tick season.
  • Wear protective clothing (long sleeves, long pants tucked into socks) when outdoors.
  • Use EPA-approved insect repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or permethrin.
  • Perform daily tick checks on yourself, children, and pets after outdoor activities.
  • Shower within two hours of coming indoors to wash off potential ticks.
  • Remove attached ticks promptly and correctly using fine-tipped tweezers.
