Colorado tick fever
Colorado tick fever (CTF) (also called mountain tick fever, American tick fever, and American mountain tick fever) is a viral infection (Coltivirus) transmitted from the bite of an infected Rocky Mountain wood tick (''Dermacentor andersoni''). It should not be confused with the bacterial tick-borne infection, Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
The type species of the genus ''Coltivirus'', Colorado tick fever virus (CTFV) infects haemopoietic cells, particularly erythrocytes, which explains how the virus is transmitted by ticks and also accounts for the incidence of transmission by blood transfusion.
==Epidemiology==
The disease develops from March to September, with the highest infections occurring in June. The disease is found almost exclusively in the western United States and Canada, mostly in high mountain areas such as Colorado and Idaho. The CTFV was first isolated from human blood in 1944.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Colorado Tick Fever )〕
