  1. As millions of Americans head outside for camping trips, hiking, and backyard BBQs, billions of ticks are already waiting in the grass, ready to bite. Not only are their numbers growing, but today's ticks are more likely to carry Lyme disease bacteria and other dangerous pathogens. Is the tick and tick-borne disease situation similar globally?

  6. Tick– #virus interactions are poorly understood despite their impact on #disease #transmission. This study shows that #ticks hijack the JAK/STAT signaling pathway to drive LRP-mediated #lipophagy, supplying energy that enhances viral replication @PLOSBiology plos.io/4tVRLWO

  7. These annoying arachnids …

    "The theories are right about one thing: Ticks are getting worse. Some of the same ecological changes fueling Maine’s winter tick boom are also making tick encounters more common in broad swaths of the U.S. The arachnids are showing up earlier in the year, expanding into new terrain, and biting people more often than they used to. But the force driving those shifts is not a clandestine bioweapons program, a vaccine plot, or Bill Gates — it’s climate change."

  11. Various ticks in the news.

    "Over the last two years, people have mailed in nearly 12,500 ticks from Wisconsin and the surrounding region to Marshfield Clinic Research Institute’s Tick Inventory via Citizen Science project. …

    "The majority of ticks submitted to Marshfield Clinic’s project were wood ticks, also known as dog ticks, which do not transmit disease to humans. This species is larger than deer ticks, which Linz said is likely why they received so many."

  13. I've already had a lonestar tick bite me, but was removed before infecting me. Most summers, outside of my own yard, I get a tick or two.
    It's important to Tick Check after exposure, I grab a shower and check.

  18. U.S. tick invasion

    “I would say that people are very alarmed and very scared about the presence of the transmission of tick-borne diseases,” says Faraone. “We don't have a vaccine for Lyme yet, although we know very well that ticks carry multiple pathogens. So a vaccine for Lyme won't be the best solution for protecting us from this.”
