Abstract:
This film documents the U.S. hemorrhagic fever mission to Siberia, Central Asia, and Russia. It shows a gathering of people, landscapes, a town, church, and loading supplies on a boat. The group travels on a river to a camp site with tents showing researchers and technicians. The film shows tick collection several times and the processing of the ticks in the tent. Lab work is also shown. Cows are shown going through a spraying machine. A poster warns against the danger of ticks. At the end of the film a series of patients are shown in a hospital with tick rashes.
