STARI   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #170 of 185 |

I just saw my first case of STARI in a woman who had been in Tennessee last week. She presented with the classic erythema migrans rash and an Amblyomma americanum tick.  She had researched it on the internet before going to her doctor, who treated her appropriately. She will now report the case to the CDC for their research work.

 

See photo attached. 

 

BTW, it was a male tick, indicating that this disease transmits in less time than Lyme.
