The coexistence of various pathogens inside the patient's body is one of the poorly studied and current issues. The aim of the study is to identify the relationship between the indicators of complex laboratory diagnostics and the clinical manifestations of a mixed disease during subsequent infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus using the example of a case of chronic encephalitis-borreliosis infection. Seven blood serum samples were collected from the patient over the course of a year.

In the territory of the Primorsky region, the nosoareas of causative agents of tick-borne infections often coincide and lead to mixed infection of ticks, which causes the mixed pathology in humans . We investigated ixodid ticks taken from people during the epidemic season of 2019 for the spectrum of pathogens of transmissible infections to determine the degree of their mono- and mixed infection. 651 specimens of ixodid ticks investigated.
