Original: 100726_tickbite_1600
Yale Climate Connections is highlighting the connection between a warming climate and tick bites. As temperatures rise, ticks are spreading into new regions and staying active for longer seasons, increasing the risk of bites and tick-borne illnesses such as Lyme disease. Coverage focuses on how changing conditions are expanding tick habitat and what the public should know about prevention.
Why now: Ticks are expanding into new areas as temperatures warm, making tick-borne illness a growing seasonal health concern.
