    Author: Köck M, Sixl W, Stünzner D, Kaaserer B, Sixl-Voigt B, Withalm H.
    Journal: Geogr Med Suppl; 1989; 2():127-30. PubMed ID: 2744470.
    Abstract:
    Investigations were carried out on small mammals to determine further distribution of Coxiella burnetii and Rickettsia RMSF-group in the Alpine and sub-Alpine regions. In altitudes of 1,200-2,400 m antibodies against Clethrionomys glareolus, Apodemus flavicollis, Sorex alpinus, Sorex minutus and Microtus agrestis were demonstrated. These findings emphasize that in the entire Alpine and sub-Alpine regions of Austria the occurrence of C. burnetii and RMSF-group rickettsia is to be expected.
