EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING INFECTIONS IN RUSSIA: A MEDICO-GEOGRAPHICAL ASPECT

Abstract

A problem of emerging and re-emerging natural focal diseases in Russia is considered. The mostimportant diseases have been determined. The Russian and foreign publications were reviewed in order toconsider the current status of the problem, analyze the existing classifications of such diseases and identifythe causes of their occurrence. The spread of diseases with different types of distribution and dynamics hasbeen considered by the example of three model infections (tick-borne borreliosis, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagicfever and Astrakhan spotted fever). The nozoareals of model infections within Russia have been mapped.
