Dangers Of E-cigarettes: Vape warning And Its Risks. Serious adverse reactions to e-cigs have been logged by Britain’s health watchdog including blood, nervous system, and respiratory disorders, as well as cancer and injuries like burns.

What Are E-cigarettes

 

 

The sizes and shapes of e-cigarettes vary widely. The majority have a heating element, a battery, and a container for a beverage. The process of making an aerosol involves heating a liquid that typically contains nicotine, the addictive substance found in ordinary cigarettes, cigars, and other tobacco products, as well as flavorings and additional compounds. This aerosol is breathed in by users. When the user exhales into the air, bystanders can also inhale this aerosol.

There are numerous names for e-cigarettes. There are other names for them, including “e-cigs,” “e-hookahs,” “mods,” “vape pens,” “vapes,” “tank systems,” and “electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS).”

Some e-cigarettes are made to look like regular cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. Some resemble pens, USB sticks, and other everyday items. Larger devices such as tank systems, or “mods,” do not resemble other tobacco products.

Using an e-cigarette is sometimes called “vaping.”

Prof. Andy Bush, a pediatric chest physician, told Sky News that vaping is worse for kids than smoking.

“If a teenager starts smoking, the worst thing that could happen to them is that they’ll get sick and throw up behind the bike shed,” he continued.

However, “acute use of e-cigarettes can put them in intensive care, with things like lung bleeding, lung collapse and air leak, and the lungs filling with fat.”

Most e-cigarettes contain nicotine, which has known health effects.

  • Nicotine is highly addictive.
  • Nicotine is toxic to developing fetuses.
  • Nicotine can harm adolescent and young adult brain development, which continues into the early to mid-20s.
  • Nicotine is a health danger for pregnant adults and their developing babies.

Besides nicotine, e-cigarette aerosol can contain substances that harm the body.1

  • This includes substances that cause cancer and small particles that penetrate the lungs deeply. However, compared to smoke from burned tobacco products, e-cigarette aerosol often includes fewer hazardous substances.
    .

Although the long-term health effects of e-cigarette use are not yet known, some users of e-cigarettes and other vaping devices have been reported to have serious lung illnesses in 2019. There were symptoms.:

  • Cough, trouble breathing, or chest pain
  • Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
  • Fatigue, fever, or weight loss

Some cases were severe enough to require hospitalization, and some people died from their illness.

PEOPLE has confirmed that Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

The Duchess of York, 63, was recently diagnosed with an early-stage breast cancer that was found during a routine mammography screening, according to a spokesperson for PEOPLE. She was informed that she needed to have surgery, which was successful.

The best medical treatment is being provided to the Duchess, and her doctors have assured her that the prognosis is favorable. The statement continued, “She is now recovering with her family. The Duchess wishes to express her sincere appreciation to all the medical professionals who have helped her lately.

The representative continues, “She is also extremely grateful to the staff at the mammogram who discovered her illness, which had no other symptoms, and believes her experience highlights the importance of routine screening.”

The Duchess taped a podcast episode the day before her operation, according to the spokesman, and it will be released early on Monday.

The news was initially reported by The Sun.

Two years have passed since Fergie opened up to PEOPLE about another facet of her health, her mental health.

In July 2021, Fergie revealed that British newspapers at the time she made her public debut in 1985 at the age of 26 were full of demeaning headlines that gave her the moniker “Duchess of Pork” and pitted her against her close friend, Princess Diana.

The Duchess admitted to having serious mental health issues at the time, attributing them to the trauma. “It’s taken a lot of work because I trusted everything the front pages told me,” the author said. It was humiliation of oneself. I have really high sensitivity.

Fergie and her girls joined the Teenage Cancer Trust for a video chat in July of last year, during which the organization’s founders Dr. Adrian Whiteson and Myrna Whiteson praised her for her close collaboration with the group over the previous 32 years.

Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice were informed by the creators that their mother “has such humility and such empathy with patients,” according to a video posted by Hello! magazine.

Fergie participated in the virtual event and helped the University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust formally establish a specialized hematological unit.

“This is a special charity that’s so very close to my heart,” Fergie said in a statement. “Cancer doesn’t just devastate a young person’s health, it threatens to take away everything they care about — their identity, their independence, and their dreams. Teenage Cancer Trust’s specialist nurses and youth workers provide the very best care and support during treatment and beyond, making sure that cancer doesn’t stop young people from living their lives.”

Thunderstorm Asthma Warning: Its Causes, Symptoms, And Prevention. Urgent weather warning as millions at risk of life-threatening illness.

Thunderstorm Asthma Warning

MILLIONS of Brits are at risk of “thunderstorm asthma”, experts say.

After storms hit the country on Monday and Tuesday, sufferers could find their symptoms are worsened by the weather.

Although the weather should get drier starting tomorrow, the Met Office predicts that England, Wales, and eastern Scotland may have thundery outbreaks of rain today.

Because the storms break up the pollen in the air into smaller particles, the effects of the storms may endure longer for some asthma and hay fever sufferers.

Wheezing, coughing, a tight chest, and shortness of breath are brought on by them because they enter your lungs more readily.

According to the most recent date for which data is available, Sunday, June 11, there was an increase in asthma emergency hospital patients associated with thunderstorms.

Warning to millions with asthma – ‘deadly’ pollen bomb to explode this weekend

More than 5 million Britons suffer from asthma, and weather fluctuations, pollen, air pollution, and thunderstorms are all known to aggravate the illness.

“Hay fever and asthmatic people may exhibit substantially more severe symptoms during thunderstorms.

What Causes Thunderstorm Asthma?

Airborne grass pollen combined with thunderstorm conditions can cause it.

It takes place while a thunderstorm develops and pollen grains are sucked up into the clouds. The pollen granules enlarge after absorbing water. Pollen allergen-containing particles are discharged. These minute particles may be carried by the wind to the ground and inhaled by breathing.

People typically have thunderstorm asthma during the windy period just before the rain begins. Typically, it takes place in the spring and early summer. Thunderstorm asthma can strike even those who have never had the condition before.

Symptoms Of Thunderstorm Asthma?

If you have the illness, you might have one or more of these symptoms:

  • shortness of breath
  • tightness in your chest
  • wheezing when you breathe
  • persistent coughing
  • difficulty breathing

 The symptoms can escalate very quickly and may become life-threatening.

Thunderstorm Asthma Preventions

 

  • make sure you have your reliever medication with you
  • stay inside, especially when it is windy before the rain
  • close your doors and windows
  • if an air conditioner is on, set it to recirculate air

Face masks won’t shield you from the little particles that trigger asthma during thunderstorms.

By controlling asthma or hay fever and making emergency plans, people who suffer from these disorders can help prevent thunderstorm asthma. Those who are susceptible to thunderstorm asthma should always have an inhaler on hand during the pollen season. Additionally, asthma preventive medicine might be suggested.

What Happened To Jessie Wynter? Jessie Wynter reveals she was rushed to hospital after her drink was spiked while on holiday in Chicago.

Terrifying: Love Island star Jessie Wynter has revealed she was rushed to hospital in Chicago after her drink was spiked

 

According to Love Island star Jessie Wynter, her drink was tainted, and she was sent to the hospital in Chicago immediately.

The reality star, 26, described the scary experience on Instagram a day after revealing that she had been hospitalized while on vacation in the US.

‘I wasn’t sure if I should write this as I felt so ashamed, however, the other night I was sadly brought to the hospital after my drink was spiked,’ added Jessie.

“I was incredibly fortunate to be with Will, who took care of me the entire time, especially because it was so terrifying.”

It broke my heart that this is something that people need to be on the lookout for because it was such a horrible and frightening scenario to be in.

Worrying: In her post, Jessie urged her followers to be vigilent when on a night out, adding she was 'so lucky' her boyfriend Will Young was with her

A day after announcing that she had been hospitalized while on vacation in the US, the reality star shared the’scary’ experience with her Instagram fans.
In her tweet, Jessie pleaded with her followers to exercise caution while out on the town, saying she was’so lucky’ to have her partner Will Young by her side.

“If you go out drinking, please make sure you are with someone you trust and use caution while setting your drinks down or accepting drinks from others.

It’s very sad that this needs to be brought up at all, but the brutal fact is what it is. I’m extremely appreciative that there were so many kind folks who helped me get to the hospital safely.

It was quite frightening because other girls were admitted to the hospital in a state identical to mine, and the staff informed us that we had all tested positive for the same substance.

“I felt so ashamed that this had happened to me and that it was entirely my fault. I can imagine that others who have been in a similar situation may feel the same. However, this is your reminder that this is absolutely not your fault and there is no need to feel ashamed.”

Not the victim, but the horrible people who decide to spike other people’s drinks ought to feel humiliated and ashamed.

‘Thanks for all the lovely messages and I pray that this doesn’t happen to any of you out there. I also send love to anyone else who has been put in the same or worse situations.’

Alongside her post, Jessie also shared a trio of images of her body covered with medical patches while she recovered in hospital.

Scared: 'I felt so embarrassed that this had happened to me and felt like this was all my fault and I can imagine others have been in the same position may feel the same,' Jessie added

Revelation: Jessie told her followers on social media that she'd unexpectedly taken ill the day before she was due to leave Chicago, saying: 'Not how we thought the trip would be ending'

On social media, Jessie said that she had fallen ill without warning the day before she was scheduled to depart Chicago, adding, “Not how we thought the trip would be ending.”

When Jessie became unwell, she was just about to leave with her lover Will for her trip back home to Australia.

On Monday, she posted to her social media accounts to inform her fans that she had been ill without warning the day before she was scheduled to leave, adding, “Not how we thought the trip would be ending.”

She also posted a picture which showed off a barcoded medical bracelet on her wrist bearing the initial IMC as well as a couple of 3M Red Dot body monitoring electrode pads on her wrist and stomach whilst an assessment was being made.

Jessie, who didn’t reveal the cause of her hospital visit, later told her fans: ‘Thanks for the messages!! You guys are the sweetest! I’m okay now.’

She also shared pictures of her and Will earlier in the day of the trip and said: ‘Our first baseball game We had so much fun at the game!! I can’t explain how much fun we’ve had in Chicago!

‘It can be scary going to a new city, let alone country but we both got out of our comfort zones and tried to get out and see as much as we could and we had an absolute blast! Everyone has been so lovely to us while we have been here !!’

She added: ‘Going to the US has always been on my bucket list and here I am with the love of my life having the best time! I could never have imagined life to be this good. Thank you so much, Chicago for the best time ever!!

‘And thank you @farmer_will_ for being my best friend, and boyfriend and for being by my side & Know to matter what life throws at us or where we are, we have each other and I just keep falling more in love with you.’

Fans were concerned by Jessie’s post with many sending her get-well messages.

One fan said: ‘But are you ok?? That story with the medical bracelet- what happened??’

Another added: ‘I was wondering too? Hope they’re ok.’

And a third said: ‘Right?! She can’t just post that and not say what happened and if she’s okay or not ??!:( ‘

MailOnline has contacted Jessie’s representatives for comment.

Jessie, who starred on Love Island Australia in 2019 before appearing on the UK version of the show this year, has been traveling around America with beau Will.

After leaving the South African Love Island villa last month, their connection has only grown stronger.

The couple was eliminated by their fellow Islanders, just missing out on advancing to the final and finishing in fifth place.

It follows Jessie’s denial of a ludicrous rumor that her younger sister is actually her daughter.

The reality star said to Cosmopolitan UK that the most bizarre rumor she has ever heard about herself is that her two-year-old baby sister is actually her child.

Jessie claimed that there was a rumor going around that she had traveled to Tasmania two years ago to give birth covertly.

Jessie, who didn’t reveal the cause of her hospital visit, later told her fans: ‘Thanks for the messages!! You guys are the sweetest! I’m okay now

Jessie denied the unfounded rumors, insisting that her youngest sister, whose name is unknown, is surely not her child.

The strangest rumor about herself, she told Cosmopolitan UK, is that my two-year-old sister’s baby sister is actually me.

“There was a rumor that I moved back to Tasmania to have the baby and then pretended that it was my mother’s, but it’s my sister, and I swear I haven’t had a child,” the speaker said.

Jessie, an Australian, has a brother named Brock, a younger sister named Rachel, 23, and a baby sister.

Today, it was revealed that Silvio Berlusconi, Italy’s divisive former prime leader, had passed away at age 86.

The millionaire, known for his infamous “Bunga Bunga” sex parties, had leukemia and had recently been diagnosed with a lung infection.

Friday saw Berlusconi committed to Milan’s San Raffaele hospital for pre-arranged tests relating to his leukemia, according to advisers.

Berlusconi had lately been diagnosed with a lung infection in addition to having leukemia “for some time.” He was admitted to San Raffaele Hospital in Milan on Friday for leukemia-related tests that, according to aides, were planned ahead of time.

What Is Leukemia

Cancer of the body’s blood-forming tissues, such as the lymphatic system and bone marrow, is known as leukemia.

There are various forms of leukemia. Some leukemia types are more prevalent in children. Most cases of other types of leukemia are in adults.

Usually, leukemia affects white blood cells. Your white blood cells are effective infection-fighting agents; they typically grow and divide in an organized manner as required by your body. But in leukemia patients, the bone marrow makes an overwhelming number of aberrant, dysfunctional white blood cells.

Because the telltale symptoms of leukemia frequently point to unrelated disorders, specialists warn it can be challenging to diagnose the disease. Here, MailOnline lists a few of the most typical symptoms.

 

Signs And Symptoms Of Leukemia:

 

Feeling dizzy or lightheaded

According to Blood Cancer UK, one indication of leukaemia is a persistent sense of fatigue and lightheadedness.

Anemia can be brought on by a condition that damages blood cells and prevents your body from producing healthy red blood cells.

According to cancer charity Macmillan, this might make you feel exhausted and uncomfortable, which is easily mistaken for the flu.

Furthermore, doctors warn that it may cause you to feel faint or lightheaded as well as appear pale or washed out.

But many other illnesses could be to responsible for the same warning signs, much like with most cancer symptoms.

Keep getting infections

Another reason to see your doctor is if you frequently experience coughs and colds that last a long time or are challenging to get rid of.

It might be nothing, but it could potentially be a symptom of leukaemia.

This is due to the fact that it can prevent your body from producing white blood cells normally, just as it can impact how red blood cells are created.

Normally, white blood cells defend against illnesses and infections.

Consequently, having less of them may make you feel exhausted.

According to the NHS, low white blood cell counts can also cause mouth sores and a sore throat.

Bruising easily

Another possible sign of the illness is bleeding without a clear reason.

People may become more brittle than usual and bleed more easily than previously as a result.

According to Macmillan, a low platelet count is the cause of unusual bleeding, blood spots, or skin rashes.

In order to stop or slow down bleeding and aid in wound healing, platelets help form blood clots. Low concentrations of these can therefore result in atypical bruising.

Our bone marrow, the sponge-like tissue found inside our bones, is where platelets are created.

Bleeding gums

Low platelet counts can also cause irregular bleeding, much like they can cause bruises.

According to Cancer Research UK, bleeding gums can be a sign of the illness, for instance when brushing your teeth.

Heavy periods or other unusual bleeding, such as nosebleeds, might potentially raise a red flag.

Fever

Another early indication of cancer is having a high temperature.

Infections that spread quickly can result from a shortage of white blood cells.

However, nocturnal sweats are another potential indication, according to Blood Cancer UK.

It is “enough to soak through bedclothes and bedding,” according to Macmillan.

It happens as a result of the body’s battle with the cancer on the inside.

Swollen lymph nodes

Swollen glands in the armpit, groin, or neck can be an indication of a variety of disorders.

This may also apply to leukemia.

According to the NHS, these glands, also known as lymph glands or lymph nodes, may hurt to the touch.

Your body’s capacity to fend against infections depends heavily on your lymph nodes.

They typically swell up due to a bacterial or viral illness.

Even though cancer seldom results in swollen lymph nodes, you should see your doctor if you observe them to be swollen and do not have an infection.

Aching joints

Your joints and bones may hurt mildly or sharply if you have leukemia.

According to Cancer Research UK, this discomfort may get greater at different times of the day.

It can be felt in the ribs as well as the long bones of the arms and legs.

According to specialists, it’s frequently brought on by too many aberrant white blood cells accumulating in the bones, joints, or lymph nodes, which causes discomfort and swelling.

Some people may also experience left-side soreness below the ribcage, which is often brought on by spleen or liver hypertrophy.

Headaches

Brain tumors may cause frequent headaches and vision problems.

However, they can also be a sign of leukemia.

This is due to the fact that an extremely high white blood cell count might obstruct the brain’s tiniest blood channels.

According to Cancer Research UK, this may result in headaches.

Eye issues can also result from an excess of white blood cells, but this symptom is less typical, according to doctors.

Other Signs Are:

  • Persistent fatigue, weakness
  • Losing weight without trying
  • Swollen lymph nodes, enlarged liver or spleen
  • Recurrent nosebleeds
  • Tiny red spots in your skin (petechiae)
  • Excessive sweating, especially at night
  • Bone pain or tenderness

 

Causes Of Leukemia

The precise causes of leukemia are unknown to scientists. It appears to be the result of both hereditary and environmental influences.

 

Risk Factors Of Leukemia

Factors that may increase your risk of developing some types of leukemia include:

  • Previous cancer treatment. Certain varieties of leukemia are more likely to develop in people who have undergone specific forms of radiation and chemotherapy for other cancers.
  • Genetic disorders. Leukemia development appears to be influenced by genetic anomalies. An elevated risk of leukemia is linked to specific genetic conditions, such as Down syndrome.
  • Exposure to certain chemicals.  Some types of leukemia are more likely to develop when people are exposed to particular chemicals, such as benzene, which is used in the chemical industry and is present in gasoline.
  • Smoking. Smoking cigarettes increases the risk of acute myelogenous leukemia.
  • Family history of leukemia. If members of your family have been diagnosed with leukemia, your risk of the disease may be increased.

The majority of those with established risk factors, meanwhile, do not develop leukemia. Many leukemia patients also do not possess any of these risk factors.

Colin McFarlane Illnesss: Colin McFarlane Prostate Cancer Diagnoses. The Dark Knight star confirms he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer after discovering a ‘genetic link’ to the disease

 

 

Colin McFarlane Illnesss: Colin McFarlane Prostate Cancer Diagnoses

 

 

The early stage of Colin McFarlane’s prostate cancer has been disclosed.

Following testing in December, the 61-year-old actor, who is best known for his part in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy, spoke publicly about his illness.

The single father expressed his gratitude to doctors for being able to detect the disease early because he underwent routine testing for it during the previous eight years.

One in four Black males is in danger of the disease, which claims the lives of 12,000 men annually, according to Colin, who also noted that men are 2.5 times more likely to develop prostate cancer if their father or brother has already had it.

The BBC Not Going Out star also encouraged his two brothers to get checked and one has since discovered he too has prostate cancer.

Lucky: The actor opened up about his diagnosis following testing in December and said he is glad he went for regular check for the disease over the past eight years which allowed doctors to catch it early

The actor opened up about his diagnosis following testing in December and said he is glad he went for regular check for the disease over the past eight years which allowed doctors to catch it early

Colin told the publication: ‘My dad is benign but he had an operation in 1999 and he said to me, “oh, I decided not to tell you and your brothers because I didn’t want to worry you”.

“He had no idea that, in fact, it was really important that he told us because there is a genetic link,” says the author.

The earliest stage of cancer, T1 out of five categories, implies that Colin is at “very low risk” and does not yet require treatment, according to the experts who diagnosed him.

‘You think, well, there’s a 70% probability that I’m OK,’ he remarked. The identical blood test that revealed this was offered as an option, they said. “From now on, we’ll test for prostate-specific antigen every three months.” I’ll also undergo an MRI once a year.”

Colin went on to say how important it is for men to speak about prostate cancer instead of ‘waiting for symptoms’ which can mean the cancer has spread.

He expressed how catching cancer early allows it to be ‘treatable and curable’.

Colin lives in Lincoln and London with wife Kate and son Josh.

John Rumpel, the owner of a Cessna traveler plane that crashed in a Virginia woods after flying into restricted airspace over Washington, D.C., on Sunday, has confirmed that he lost his daughter, Adina Azarian, and his 2-year-old granddaughter in the tragedy.

The pilot of the personal luxury plane had fallen oblivious. Because the airplane entered limited airspace unannounced, two DoD-approved F-16s mixed from the Pentagon to catch the plane, causing a sonic blast across the D.C. region.

The Virginia State Police started an inquiry and salvage mission following getting reports of the accident. They tracked down no survivors.

The plane had left from Elizabethton, Tennessee, and was headed for Islip, New York. The plane crashed in the scantily populated town of Montebello, Virginia, around 3 p.m. The plane was enlisted to Reprise Engines of Melbourne, which is a Florida-based organization possessed by John and Barbara Rumpel. Not even one of them was on the plane.

Rumpel told The New York Times his little girl, 2-year-old granddaughter, her caretaker, and the pilot were on the plane at the hour of the accident.

“We don’t know anything about the accident,” he told Washington Post. “We are conversing with the FAA now.”

 

John Rumpel possesses land and gloats of having numerous extravagant properties in Florida and different spots.

He gave a huge amount to the previous President Donald Trump and his political association throughout the long term. He gave $250,000 to the Trump Triumph PAC in 2020. His significant other, Barbara, has likewise given to a variety of conservative up-and-comers including $2,900 to Georgia Senate confident Herschel Walker and $500 to Florida legislative competitor Laura Loomer, who is an extreme right powerhouse who is renowned for being Islamaphobic.

Barbara is likewise the leader of John’s organization, Reprise Engines, and a conspicuous individual from the NRA Ladies’ Authority Gathering in Florida. “My family is gone, my little girl and granddaughter,” she composed on Facebook after the accident.

What Is Babesiosis? What To Know About The New Tick-Borne Disease

Babesia In The Blood? There Should Be A Test For That

What is Babesiosis?

The protozoan parasite known as Babesia, which can be carried by black-legged ticks (sometimes called deer ticks) in the northeastern and midwestern United States, causes babesiosis by infecting red blood cells.

The parasite can enter a person’s circulation through a tick bite.

Some patients have no symptoms at all, while others present with symptoms like fever, muscular aches, joint discomfort, and so forth. Antimicrobial drugs might be recommended by a doctor to help treat infections.

Babesiosis can be fatal in the most severe cases, particularly in people with impaired immune systems, according to the CDC. Low platelet counts, kidney failure, respiratory distress syndrome, and low platelet counts are only a few of the disease’s potentially fatal consequences.

Babesiosis infections are increasing, although the illness is still very uncommon. Between 2011 and 2019, states reported more than 1,800 cases of babesiosis annually to the CDC. Compared to Lyme disease, which is the most prevalent illness transmitted by ticks: According to the CDC, 30,000 Lyme case reports are received each year.

Ticks are the source of babesiosis, a new, possibly fatal disease that can be mistaken for a common summer cold, according to specialists.

The CDC warns that babesiosis instances have “significantly increased” in the Northeastern United States, despite the fact that the illness frequently goes undetected or only manifests as minor symptoms.

Although some individuals may experience more severe symptoms, they all have a fever, chills, body aches, and headaches. Babesiosis can potentially be fatal, according to Dr. Bobbi Pritt of the Mayo Clinic.

The CDC cautions: “In certain patients, severe complications can occur, including thrombocytopenia, renal failure, and acute respiratory distress syndrome.” Patients who are immunocompromised or asplenic (have had their spleen removed) are at risk of more serious results.

what is good news? As long as it is discovered early, babesiosis can be treated with drugs as widely accessible as azithromycin and atovaquone. Additionally, the CDC notes that transmission of babesiosis typically occurs 36 to 48 hours after a tick has been attached, whereas Lyme disease transmission can occur after a tick has been attached for as little as 24 hours.

Babesiosis is becoming increasingly prevalent at the same time that Lyme disease is also increasing. Both diseases are transmitted by the same kind of tick, the black-legged tick, also known as the deer tick.

But even though Lyme disease sometimes exhibits certain babesiosis-like symptoms, such as fever and headache, it usually results in a distinctive “bullseye” rash (Erythema migrans) that makes it easier to identify. The rash will grow a red ring around it that resembles a target or a bullseye as the illness advances.

Up to 80% of tick bites that are infected result in that rash, according to the CDC.

If left untreated, Lyme disease can also have more serious effects on otherwise healthy individuals. “It will spread throughout the body to the joints and the brain’s neurological system. Babesiosis, on the other hand, doesn’t spread in the same way. However, it could be fatal, according to Dr. Pritt of the Mayo Clinic.

This summer, states should exercise caution as more tick activity is anticipated. Tick populations can be reduced by winter temperatures below freezing, but this past winter was mild over much of the United States.

And earlier this year, due to the higher weather, specialists in Connecticut, the state where Lyme disease was first found, declared ticks a year-round threat.

“It’s going to be an above-average year for tick activity and abundance,” Goudarz Molaei, a tick expert for the state of Connecticut, told the Associated Press.

While it’s important to monitor your symptoms and do a “tick check” any time you’ve been outdoors, experts advise the “A, B, C” method to stay safe from ticks:

A: Avoid

Avoid areas where ticks are likely to be found. This means wooded or marshy areas, especially if you’re in the Northeastern or Upper Midwest states. (The CDC maintains a tick bite tracker that you can check before heading outdoors this summer.)

B: Bug Spray

The CDC recommends using a bug spray with DEET or picaridin — and caution to not put bug spray on children younger than 2 months.

C: Cover Up

Yes, it’s hot out, but ticks can’t bite what they can’t reach. Wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors.
