Lyme disease is still the state of Wisconsin’s most commonly reported tick-borne disease, but two other diseases—human anaplasmosis (formerly called ehrlichiosis) and babesiosis—can also result from the bites of deer ticks. These diseases are less common than Lyme disease, but can result in serious illness. Numbers of reported cases of deer tick-transmitted diseases in Lincoln County are increasing. In 2011, a total of 85 Lyme disease cases, 4 babesiosis cases and 3 human anaplasmosis cases were reported. In 2010, our county had reported 60 Lyme disease cases and 2 babisiosis cases. In 2009, there were reported 69 Lyme disease cases and 14 anaplasmosis cases. |
