yeah, unfortunately these types of things are happening more frequently- Growing up we never worried about these kinds of things- now there are warning signs all over the p lace- “Caution, high lyme disease area” or something similar- I remember literally growing up in the woods- and hiking all over the place- camping etc- perhaps we just weren’t aware back then but it just seems like there are more and more cases I n recent years- Had a friend go to health center with high fever which lasted several days- the nurse told him that cases of lyme disease were up 300% this year- Turns out he tested negative- but seeing all kinds of reports in newspaper talking about lyme disease increases and to ‘use caution’ when out and about-
Bleh- miss the old days-
Indeed! I grew up tramping through woods, riverbanks, and even inner city vacant lots that had become overgrown. I never heard of a case of Lymes till much later in life.
Very strange.
