摘      要：INTRODUCTION Scrub typhus, a tropical febrile vector borne disease also known as ＂Tsutsugamushi disease＂, is caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, a gram negative obligate intracellular slow growing bacteria. The infection is transmitted by the bite of larval stage （chiggers） mites belonging to the family Trombiculidae.
