Leptospira in river and soil in a highly endemic area of Ecuador
BACKGROUND: Leptospira are shed into the environment via urine of infected animals. Rivers are thought to be an important risk factor for transmission to humans, though much is unknown about the types of environment or characteristics that favor survival. To address this, we screened for Leptospira...
