Lyme Disease – A tick bites you

Lyme disease is caused by bacteria transmitted through the bite of an infected tick.

Lyme disease was first identified in 1977. Many cases, at the time, were reported in children from the town of Lyme, Connecticut, United States. Ever since, thousands of cases have been reported across the United States, Canada and Europe.
