Esta é uma forma de tifo assim chamada porque a doença frequentemente causa epidemias após guerras e desastres naturais. O organismo causador é a Rickettsia prowazekii, transmitida pelo piolho do corpo humano (Pediculus humanus corporis). Esse diagnóstico deve-se a uma espécie de bactéria gram-negativa, parasita intracelular obrigatória, aeróbia (pertencente à classe Alphaproteobacteria), que é o agente etiológico do tifo epidêmico, transmitido pelas fezes dos piolhos. | |||
