Rats are well-known carriers of leptospirosis. Leptospirosis is transmitted when the pathogenic Leptospira comes into contact with open wounds or penetrates the skin. In urban areas, this usually happens through the presence leptospira-infected urine of rats in floods. I am trying to find out if there are underlying factors in the carrier that may affect the pathogenicity of leptospirosis.
