Just cool stuff. Mosquito spit has an effect on severity of viral infection. But it matters which mosquito bites...pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40326341/

62-year-old Kevin Boyce, who lived near Boston, passed away last year from Powassan virus. Now, his family is alerting people about the risks of tick bites and urging them to take precautions. READ MORE lymedisease.org/massachusetts-… via LymeDisease.org

The viruses that put humanity at greatest risk to date come from 25 or so virus families. It is these families that are most likely to produce the next deadly viral threat. Learn more ⬇️ cepi.net/getting-know-h…

We are observing a notable increase in human–tick encounters this season, reflected by a substantial influx of tick submissions for pathogen testing. Our lab is operating at full capacity, with all PCR machines actively processing #tick samples. Thangamani Lab, SUNY Upstate ☣️🧬🦟🐁🦠 Upstate Medical University

WHY SHOULD YOU TEST A TICK? #Ticks can carry harmful pathogens that cause illness in both humans and animals. Testing a tick after removal can help evaluate potential risks and allow for timely medical intervention. Got Ticks? Get Them Tested #TickTesting Thangamani Lab, SUNY Upstate ☣️🧬🦟🐁🦠
