Abstract
Riskettsioses are infectious disorders usually transmitted to humans by arthropods. With the exception of Q fever which is primarily acquired by inhalation of contaminated airborne droplets, all the other rickettsial diseases involve skin and produce skin lesions.
Ehrlichia organisms, anaplasma spp are causative agents in infectious entities with similar clinical presentation.
