being told that a tick bite was "no big deal". As always: have fun, but follow the science and be careful out there with your health! 🙏. /end.

from a tick bite, especially given the long-term suffering it can cause. I am sure that the hundreds and hundreds of people with chronic tick- and vector-borne illness who attend our clinic at @CoRESinai would tell you that this is information they wish they had when they were.7/.

few weeks to months for the emergence of any new symptoms or health changes that weren't with you *before* the tick bit you. Again, thrilled to see @BuzzFeed raising awareness about tick-borne illness. Honestly wonderful to see, but let's not understate the risk of illness.6/.

studies so that if you are unfortunately bitten by a tick, you take things seriously:.- Safe removal of the tick as quickly as possible.- Consultation with a doctor if you're immediately noticing symptoms such as fever, joint pain or a rush.- Remaining vigilant over the next .5/.

some studies, and there hasn't been enough good research to give us a solid answer about Bartonella (which is wild in and of itself). I'm not sharing this information to cause any sort of fear or upset about tick-borne illness, rather: I'm sharing facts from peer-reviewed .4/.

ticks carry other pathogens than just Borrelia! Potwassan Virus can be transmitted inside of 15 MINUTES, Anaplasma, Ehrlichia and Babesia definitely can be transmitted within 12 hours (sometimes less), and Rickettsia infection has been shown to occur in less than 6 hours in .3/.

public should be aware that transmission of Borrelia Burgdorferi, the bacteria that causes #Lyme disease can happen sooner than 24-36 hours. In fact, nymph ticks (much harder to spot than full-grown) have been known to transmit Lyme to a host in under 12 hours. Furthermore, .2/.

I'm glad to see @BuzzFeed running educational content about tick- and vector-borne illness like #lyme, but I must disagree with Dr Shapiro, who is quoted in this article, that an infected tick *has* to be on for 24-36 hrs to transmit Lyme Disease. The.1/.
