Hepatitis
Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage
Hypovolemia
 Prevention of Thypus
• maintaining adequate personal hygiene (helps guard
against lice carrying the disease)
• controlling the rodent population (rodents are known to
carry arthropods)
• avoiding travel to regions where typhus exposure has
occurred, or to countries that are high risk due to lack of
sanitation
• chemoprophylaxis with doxycycline (used as a
preventive only in those at high risk, such as those on
humanitarian campaigns in areas with extreme poverty
and little or no sanitation)
