hello
The causative bacteria is called Rickettsia typhi.
Typhus usually responds to antibiotic treatment. However, in some cases the Rickettsia bacteria remain dormant in cells and can cause another outbreak (possibly months or years later) in individuals who appear cured.
Typhus is a disease caused by bacteria carried by some ticks and lice. They are spread by them biting an animal.
Rickets is a disease that is caused by a lack of vitamin D in the diet- not a communicable disease. However, Rickettsia are a bacteria that can cause disease, such as typhus or Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever.

Typhus, caused by Rickettsia bacteria, does not involve typical "typhus cells," as these bacteria are obligate intracellular parasites. Rickettsia species do possess plasmids, although they are not as common or well-studied as those found in other bacteria. Plasmids in Rickettsia can carry genes that contribute to their virulence and adaptation to host environments. Thus, while Rickettsia may have plasmids, the term "typhus cells" is not applicable in the traditional sense.
Skin rashes are one external symptom of typhus (Rickettsia) infection.

No, rickettsiae are transmitted by arthropods and can cause typhus and Rocky Mountain fever.
