Possible Causes for Rickettsia Prowazekii

Epidemic Typhus

We tested sera of nine patients by microimmunofluorescence for antibodies to Rickettsia prowazekii and Rickettsia typhi. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemic typhus is another life-threatening louse-borne disease caused by Rickettsia prowazekii and known to occur in conditions of war, famine, refugee camps, cold weather [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Brill-Zinsser Disease

The agent that causes epidemic typhus (Rickettsia prowazekii) remains viable for many years and then when host defenses are down, it is reactivated causing recurrent typhus [medicine.academic.ru]
