Justificación y objetivos: investigamos la existencia de una superposición geográfica histórica entre la localización de casos de rickettsiosis exantemáticas humana, enfermedad causada por la bacteria gramnegativa Rickettsia sp., y la de mamíferos reservorios, específicamente caballos domésticos y capibaras, en el perímetro urbano de la ciudad de Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Métodos: se geolocalizaron los casos de rickettsiosis humana ocurridos durante un período de 17 años (2003-2020), y se evaluó la distribución de casos en el tiempo y espacio geográfico utilizando indicadores de asociación geoespacial de 1er y 2do orden. También analizamos la superposición entre las ubicaciones de los casos de rickettsiosis humana y el área de ocurrencia de los caballos domésticos y capibaras. Resultados: los hombres fueron diagnosticados con más frecuencia que las mujeres, pero una gran proporción de mujeres afectadas fallecieron. Los resultados indican una agregación de casos de rickettsiosis humana en el tiempo (los casos tienden a ocurrir cerca uno del otro en cada evento epidémico) y en el espacio geográfico (los casos se concentran en una región geográfica específica del perímetro urbano). Los casos humanos parecen estar más asociados con regiones urbanas con: i) mayor frecuencia local de caballos domésticos y no de capibaras; ii) menores tasas de desarrollo familiar. Conclusión: se sugiere que, en el escenario epidemiológico local, los caballos domésticos parecen ser las principales fuentes de la rickettsia que infecta a los humanos, no los capibaras.
