Research Notes on Insect-borne Diseases
Insects and their relatives - ticks, mites, spiders, and so on - are commonly known as arthropods. This group transmits a variety of diseases that are responsible for approximately 2 percent of deaths worldwide. Diseases transmitted by arthropods range from Lyme disease and West Nile fever in the United States to malaria and dengue fever in areas such as Africa and parts of Asia. In many cases, simple precautions can significantly reduce, if not prevent, the risk of transmission.
