Background: Tick-borne infectious diseases caused by the spotted fever group Rickettsia (SFGR) have continuously emerging, with many previously unidentified SFGR species reported. The prevalence of SFGRs in northwestern China remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of SFGRs and Anaplasma species by analyzing tick samples collected from the Ningxia region.

Emerging tick-borne orthonairovirus infections pose a growing global concern, with limited understanding of the viral ovarian tumor-like cysteine proteases (vOTUs) encoded by novel orthonairoviruses. These vOTUs, a group of deubiquinylases (DUBs), disrupt the innate immune response. Yezo virus (YEZV), a recently discovered pathogenic orthonairovirus, was first reported in Japan in 2021.

Surgical and Transplant Intensive Care Unit, 108 Military Central Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Article Synopsis
- Lemierre's syndrome is a rare, potentially life-threatening condition that can be caused by various bacteria, not just those initially identified by Andre Lemierre.
- A 62-year-old male patient with type 2 diabetes presented with severe neck swelling and required extensive medical interventions due to complications such as pulmonary abscesses and septic shock.
- Successful treatment involved the antibiotic meropenem and improved glycemic control, leading to the patient's recovery and discharge, underscoring the need for clinicians to be aware of diverse pathogens associated with Lemierre's syndrome, especially in diabetic patients.

Background: High consequence infectious diseases (HCID) include contact-transmissible viral haemorrhagic fevers and airborne-transmissible infections such as Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome. Assessing suspected HCID cases requires specialised infection control measures including patient isolation, personal protective equipment (PPE), and decontamination. There is need for an accessible course for NHS staff to improve confidence and competence in using HCID PPE outside specialist HCID centres.
