RESUMEN
La tularemia es una enfermedad infecciosa clásicamente trasmitida
por vector, de áreas geográficas circunscritas, provocada
por
Francisella tularensis, bacteria muy virulenta que provoca en el
ser humano diversos síndromes clínicos definidos. La enfermedad
tiene especial relevancia debido a su potencial como arma
terrorista. El pronóstico está determinado por la variedad clínica
y es curable con antibióticos.
