Intracellular Pathogens: Many members of the order Rickettsiales are obligate intracellular bacteria, meaning they can only survive and replicate within the cells of their host organisms.
Vector-Borne Diseases: Several bacteria within the order Rickettsiales are transmitted to humans through arthropod vectors such as ticks, fleas, and lice. These bacteria are responsible for a group of diseases known as rickettsioses.
Rickettsioses: Rickettsial diseases include conditions such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, typhus, and scrub typhus. Symptoms of rickettsial infections can vary but often include fever, headache, muscle aches, and a rash. These diseases can range from mild to severe and, if left untreated, can be life-threatening.
Diverse Hosts: Rickettsiales bacteria can infect a wide range of hosts, including mammals, birds, and arthropods. Some species within this order have specific reservoir hosts, while others can infect a variety of hosts.
Common Genera: Important genera within the order Rickettsiales include Rickettsia, Orientia, and Ehrlichia.
Global Distribution: Rickettsial diseases are found in various parts of the world and are often associated with specific geographic regions. The distribution of these diseases is influenced by the presence of suitable vectors and reservoir hosts.
Treatment with Antibiotics: Rickettsial infections are typically treated with antibiotics, and early diagnosis and prompt treatment are essential to prevent complications.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
