Tick-Borne Disease Creeping Into New States

Babesiosis, a tick-borne illness usually found up north, is now popping up in Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware—thanks to warmer weather. Researchers are worried local doctors might not spot it fast enough since it’s so new to the area. Climate change is letting these ticks (and their diseases) spread further than ever. Basically, if you’re in the mid-Atlantic, keep an eye out for ticks and weird symptoms. Wild how fast things are changing! #HealthAlert #ClimateChange #Ticks
