I had that. I was being treated for Lyme and my Dr felt that was much worse. He made me stop the Lyme medicine to treat the babesi first

This sounds bad for certain age groups and people with autoimmune. Since I've been using deet on my skin and permethrin on my clothes I haven't seen but a few ticks on me. And always have the wife give me the check over when I come out the woods.

It's good to get a warning out there with Trout season and Turkey season opening soon.

Not everything is a lab leak or conspiracy. Babesiosis is a warm weather parasite . Very slowly expanding its range.

I just had a call from the vet about my dog. Routine blood tests shows anaplasmosis. Another tick born disease. I have never heard of it until now. He already had the Lyme shots too.

Ticks are becoming more of a threat than bats?
