%X <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Brucellosis and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) are neglected zoonoses, attributable respectively to Brucella and the SFTS virus (SFTSV). While the incidence of these diseases has been rising, instances of co-infection remain uncommon.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This represents the first documented case of a rare coinfection involving Brucella and SFTSV. We carried out an epidemiological analysis of patients diagnosed with brucellosis and those with SFTS at Yidu Central Hospital of Weifang. Our findings demonstrate a temporal and spatial overlap among the affected individuals.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Our findings suggest that co-infections arising from the spatiotemporal overlap of Brucella and SFTSV are plausible, necessitating heightened awareness and enhanced diagnostic measures.
