How deadly is cattle tick fever and what are the symptoms of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: If you are referring to true "cattle tick fever" (babesia genus of ungulate specific protozoan infection), then as far as i can discern, humans are not affected. There are other types of babesia that affect humans, but this is not one of them.
