Abstract
Murine typhus, flea-borne typhus, and shop fever are other names used for this disease. Endemic typhus fever is caused by bacteria called Rickettsia typhi or another bacteria called Rickettsia felis. Endemic typhus is not directly spread from person to person. People become infected when they come into contact with fleas infected with the bacteria that cause endemic typhus fever. Endemic typhus differs from epidemic or louse-borne typhus, which does not usually occur in this country.
