Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere. It is now one of the fastest growing infectious diseases in the U.S. Lyme disease is caused by infection with the Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria, and is primarily transmitted to humans as well as dogs, horses and other domesticated animals by the bite of infected ticks.
The CDC refuses many, many, many cases. so they will not show up on the map.
Also many doctors assume "you must have travelled to an area with Lyme disease" But I know these dogs cats and horses are not travelling... so they must have gotten it where they live!
