Lyme Disease Poster and Leaflet


(General Council)
Lyme disease (caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi)is spread by the bite of a tick. Ramblers, campers, mountainbikers, and people who work and walk in forested/grassy areas are at greatest risk of being bitten. The first symptom of Lyme disease is often a rash that can appear 3 to 30 days after the tick bite. Most cases are mild but occasionally a severe form can develop with heart and nervous system involvement.
