#Maine reports #tick-borne disease records in 2025

As of Dec. 23, Maine had seen 3,611 reported cases of #Lymedisease, up from 3,218 last year. #Anaplasmosis numbers rose to 1,598 from 1,284. #Babesiosis reports totalled 349 compared to 309 in 2024.

Health Update: It's been 2 months since I was diagnosed with Anaplasmosis & I'm about 80% recovered. My doctor thinks I will get back to 100% without another round of medication. This makes me & foster girl Lena very happy! #blueskydogs #dogs #tickinfection #anaplasmosis

#anaplasmosis

Human granulocytic #anaplasmosis
(HGA) is distributed worldwide, especially in northern latitudes of North America, Europe, and Asia, where Ixodes persulcatus clade ticks or Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks (China) and multiple small mammals serve as vectors and reservoirs

Clinical Testing and Diagnosis for Anaplasmosis Don't delay doxycycline treatment for anaplasmosis; act fast and gather thorough patient history.

Health Update: Foster girl Lena & I are happy to report that I finished my medication for Anaplasmosis about 5 days ago & I'm feeling about 75% better. My doctor wants to give it 2-3 more weeks to see if I can get to 100% on my own! #dogs #ticks #marthasvineyard #blueskydogs #anaplasmosis
