Projecting the potential distribution of Rickettsia japonica in China and Asian adjacent regions under climate change using the Maxent model
Under global climate change, the suitable area of <i>R. japonica</i> is generally increasing, with a northward shift observed in China. Governments should strengthen monitoring, risk assessment, and response strategies in highly suitable regions, while also preventing the invasion of <i>R. japonica</i> from external source.
