Antibodies against Kumlinge disease were found in 28% of the population, and increased from 10% in the 0-19 year age group to 42% in the 60-79 year age group. The prevalence varied markedly between different islands, being highest in the outer, bushy islands. Antibodies against Pogosta disease were detected in 2.7%. | lld:pubmed |
