Clinically, HGA is essentially indistinguishable from human monocytic ehrlichiosis, the infection caused by "Ehrlichia chaffeensis", and other tick-borne illnesses such as Lyme disease may be suspected. As Ehrlichia serologies can be negative in the acute period, PCR is very useful for diagnosis.
Currently, there is no vaccine against human granulocytic anaplasmosis, so antibiotics are the only form of treatment. The best way to prevent HGA is to prevent getting tick bites.
