Letter: Lyme Disease Awareness Month

Letter to the editor

By on Thu, May 11, 2006

This is Lyme Disease Awareness Month. Be aware that the nymphal ticks are prominent right now, and most likely to carry Lyme disease and other devastating co-infections like Babesia and Erlichia! Get treatment promptly, rash or no rash, if you have a bite and experience ANY unusual symptoms. Check out the California Lime Disease Association and ILADS - International Lyme And Associated Diseases Society websites.
