Brazilian Spotted Fever (BSF) is a severe tick-borne disease in Brazil's south and southeast regions. The study analyzed the temporal trends and spatial distribution of BSF cases and deaths, finding stable incidence and mortality rates, decreasing case fatality, and distinct spatial clusters. This emphasizes the importance of ongoing surveillance and prevention efforts.
