title: [Serological evidence of Leptospira spp., dengue, hantavirus and arenavirus infection in Embera-Katío indigenous population, Colombia].
abstract: We have developed a study in the Embera-Katío indigenous community and we found that the seropositivity for IgG antibodies to Leptospira spp. was 18.1%; to dengue was 61.1%; to arenavirus was 3.1% and to hantavirus was 1.5%. We conclude that this indigenous community live in conditions that promote the reemerging and emerging, infections.
