AB Relapsing  fever  is  a  vector-borne,  remittent  febrile  illness,  transmitted  by  lice  and  ticks,  which  is  caused  by  several  species  of  spirochetes  of  the  bacterial  genus  Borrelia.  Two  clinical  forms  are  distinguished  by  their  vectors:  louse-borne  and  tick-borne  relapsing  fevers.
