Topic: AMERICAN DOG TICKS (Dermacentor variabilis) AND LONESTAR TICKS (Amblyomma americanum) AND ASSOCIATED DISEASES
While Lyme disease is now a household word and most of us realize that non-deer ticks do not transmit Lyme disease, we should be aware that there are other ticks and other tick-borne diseases of concern. These important diseases will be presented in context of their relative risk and measures to reduce those risks. Speaker: Dr. Stephen Rich, UMass Laboratory of Medical Zoology.
