Tick-Borne Illnesses on the Rise: Climate Change Blamed?
English Tick-borne illnesses are increasing in number, and some experts believe climate change is the cause. The tick populations are growing due to increased humidity and milder winters, and longer periods of activity in the warmer months increase the risk of people coming in contact with them. For those who do contract a tick-borne illness, the symptoms can range from mild to severe, and can include fever, fatigue, and joint pain. #ClimateChange #TickBorneIllness #Risk 🦟🐞🌡
