   How many cases of spotted fever group rickettsiosis are RMSF?

   • Thousands of cases of spotted fever group rickettsiosis occur every year, but it is unclear how many of those cases are RMSF, and how many result from other, less severe spotted fevers. Inclusion of less severe spotted fevers, such as R. parkeri rickettsiosis, likely leads to the lower case fatality rate observed in recent decades.
