Scrub typhus is an acute febrile infectious disease that occurs mainly in the fall. It is caused by the bite of a chigger mite larva carrying the bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi. Covering the skin well during outdoor activity and showering afterward are key to prevention. If flu-like symptoms develop after outdoor activity in the fall, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26
