Talk:Human granulocytic anaplasmosis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Human granulocytic ehrlichiosis is an outdated term from a period of time when the causal bacterium of the disease was in the genus "Ehrlichia." The infection has been re-named to "Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis" as the genus of the causal bacterium was changed to "Anaplasma." In addition, Ehrlichia chaffiensis is a distinctly different organism from Anaplasma phagocytophilum
