Abstract

Ticks transmit more pathogenic microorganism (bacteria, virus and parasites) than any other arthropod vector. Diseases transmitted by ticks are largely prevalent around the world and cause major global health problems. Nevertheless, although the epidemiology of bacteria transmitted by tick is well-studied, it's not the same with the virus. Ticks are as the vector as the reservoir for multiple pathogenic bacteria and virus within enzootic life cycles. These vectors hace expanded their horizons due to agricultural activity and the use of previously non-used lands, thus increasing contact with the human being. This new contact with ticks and other ectoparasites has contributed to the appearance of several important zoonotic pathogens, such as new viruses previously unknown.
