The period between infection with

ranges from two days in some cases,
DR.. Riley said, to ten or twelve in
Others. In its early stages tick-bite
fever may be confused with influ-
enza, measles and typhoid fever. 1t
is advisable, therefore, to call doc

develop after having been exposed to
ticks. Laboratory tests of the blood
are valuable in confirming the
diagnosis.
The majority of the cases of tick
bite fever that have been reported
in Maryland, have occurred between
May and September.
