Mystery-Virus/Rickettsial Infection/Deficiencies?

[Nanno]

Yes it is usually transmitted by ticks, there are some studies showing it being transmitted by lice and I had a huge lice issue this year. The other thing is that anaplamosis can lay dormant in a host essentially until the goat becomes stressed, or becomes immune compromised. It's a far reach but there were a few horses in my area last year who became infected with anaplamosis, no tick was ever found.

That's interesting to know. Now it makes more sense.
