@VerlorengezondheidM, heeft dr A.S daar een artikel over gepubliceerd? Interessant is om te weten hoeveel teken en nimfen uitVerlorengezondheidM schreef:Dr A. S. heeft in zuid Duitsland teken onderzocht op Borrelia Miyamotoi en had geconstateerd dat het een puinhoop met de aanwezigheid van Borrelia Miyamotoi in zuid Duitse teken is.
Zuid Duitsland (uit welke regio's) er zijn onderzocht en hoe hoog het percentage met Borrelia Miyamotoi is.
Het van horen zeggen is onvoldoende. Als het wordt bevestigd in een wetenschappelijk artikel met een publicatie in toonaangevende wetenschappelijke medische tijdschriften heeft dat een wetenschappelijke waarde.

Study - 'Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato) identification and survey of tick-borne encephalitis virus in ticks from north-eastern Germany' by Cristian Răileanu, Oliver Tauchmann, Ana Vasić, Elisabeth Wöhnke, Cornelia Silaghi; Bron https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7045458/ en Bron https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32106890/
..Results
In total, 2407 ticks were collected (239 females, 232 males and 1936 nymphs). Female and male I. ricinus ticks had identical infection rates (both 12.1%) for Borrelia spp., while nymphal pools showed a minimum infection rate (MIR) of 3.3%. Sequencing revealed four Borrelia species: B. afzelii, B. garinii, B. valaisiana and B. miyamotoi. Borrelia afzelii had the highest prevalence in adult ticks (5.5%) and nymphs (MIR of 1.8%). Borrelia miyamotoi was identified in 3.0% of adults and registered the MIR of 0.8% in nymphs. Borrelia valaisiana was confirmed in 2.5% adult ticks and nymphs had the MIR of 0.7%, while B. garinii was present in 1.1% of adults and showed a MIR of 0.1% in nymphs. The MLST of B. miyamotoi isolates showed that they belong to sequence type 635. No tick sample was positive after RT-qPCR for TBEV RNA..
..Discussion
Relapsing fever agent Borrelia miyamotoi was detected in 1.2% of the analysed ticks, this data being the first reported for Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. In addition, the first available data regarding infection rates of B. miyamotoi in ticks from Northern Germany became available in 2018, when 2.1% of I. ricinus ticks collected from the city of Hanover were positive [16]. The prevalence of the current study is therefore in concordance with B. miyamotoi infectious rates found in I. ricinus ticks from Europe, ranging from 0.4% in Estonia to 3.5% in France and Germany [21, 48, 49]. The fact that this pathogen is present in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania can have significance for clinicians since B. miyamotoi can cause febrile illness characterised by fever, nausea, fatigue, headache, chills, myalgia, arthralgia and meningoencephalitis [21]..
Teken onderzoeken/Borrelia Miyamotoi en percentages..Conclusions
The present study is adding new information regarding the distribution of B. miyamotoi in tick populations from Northern Germany which should be considered by medical clinicians when treating patients after a tick bite. The infection rate of B. miyamotoi in ticks was similar to other reports in tick populations from Europe suggesting that this relapsing fever agent might be well established in the local tick population and small mammal reservoir hosts. In addition, the detection of B. afzelii, B. garinii and B. valaisiana corroborating previous studies, suggests a constant circulation of B. burgdorferi (s.l.) in the tick population from this region. While in this study detection of tick-borne encephalitis virus was not possible, other reports showed signs of virus circulation in the area and extensive future studies should determine the natural foci of TBEV in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in order to reassess the risks for public health..
