Ahead of what is projected to be one of the worst summers for tick-borne diseases in years in Westchester and Rockland Counties, U.S. Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer today urged, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to double-down on efforts to fully implement new laws, passed by Congress last year, that will significantly increase research, vaccine development and treatment strategies to help stamp out tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease. Schumer said any delay in federal action will allow newly emerging disease like Powassan, which is even deadlier than Lyme disease, to impact already highly vulnerable areas like Westchester, Rockland and the entire Hudson Valley region.

Ugh! She stinks so much, not even the ticks will go near her!
1) Schumer warns about Lyme disease.
2) Lyme disease can lead to dementia.
3) See point #1.
Be willing to bet more Americans have acquired TB from illegals than have gotten Powassan from ticks.
“Poly”- many
‘Ticks’- blood sucking parasites carrying disease.
‘Politics’- many disease carrying blood sucking parasites.
Hey Chuck - if you really give a shiite about your people getting those horrible diseases (and yes, Lyme is no fun), then how about a DEER HUNT because that is why it has become so widespread.
...but no, he’ll let his people suffer FOR YEARS, as CDC tries to come up with something that will mitigate the symptoms, slightly. Must not make your supporters deal with the cold reality of the tick problem, right Chuck.
DDT
All you’d have to do is tell her there’s a foreign operative with a briefcase of cash out in the woods and she’d be covered in ticks very quickly.
But then all of her sycophants trying to run into her “randomly” out there would put it on Facebook.
Win-win?
Some jokes just write themselves — ticks, New York, DemocRATs, Schumer, Clinton...................
Ticks are repulsed by Hillary.
Guineafowl will clean ticks out very quickly. But they must be allowed to roam freely and be protected from dogs.
Bioweapon.
Lyme disease started in NYC years ago. Any coincidence a new strain is discovered in the same state.
Ticks are wicked bad in NY right now. Things seem to have calmed down here in MA.
Sounds like someone has their hand out to Schumer for a big fat grant.
“the Chuck tick”
Durbin is trying the same thing with Asian silver carp: bottom feeding suckers, useless trash fish that drive out desirable game fish.
YOU ARE THE TICK chucky!!!
Dang, Chuckie,
Those are your peeps. Grab a can of RAID. get your butt out there and SAVE THEM!!!
I'll vote with ye
Along with Scabies, Hand-foot-and-mouth disease, (these two big in day care), Pertussis, Diphtheria, Malaria, Hemorrhagic fever, Measles.
Supreme Court says we have to give them a free education but are we automatically requiring them to get immunized prior to this? I think I’ve also heard of a new form of Polio.
Good thing we have Obamacare to protect US kids and our eldery!/s
