Lyme disease can occur anywhere there are infected ticks. If a tick is carrying the lyme disease, and you get bit, no matter where you are, you can catch it.
no
yes
Yes. It is only in very extreme cases where Lyme Disease isn't diagnosed and treated for a long period of time that it is fatal. It isn't the Lyme Disease that would be fatal but rather complications and co-infections that could result from the disease going untreated. In some cases, Lyme Disease that isn't treated for an extended time may lead to paralysis. Most often, Lyme Disease is discovered and treated before any permanent damage is sustained.
lyme disease so watch out what you do you can die ffrom this
Lyme Disease is actually transmitted by ticks. Any warm blooded mammal that is bitten by a tick has the possibility of contracting Lyme Disease. Brown deer ticks are known for carrying the spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi,which is the spirochete that causes Lyme Disease.
No. Lyme disease is a tick-borne infectious disease.While it may be possible to get Lyme disease through sexual intercourse with an infected person, there is still research being done to prove or disprove this theory.It is not, however, a sexually transmitted disease.Some say Lyme Disease can not be sexually transmitted and that Lyme Disease is transmitted through a tick that is infected with it. However, research has proven that the lyme bacterium can be transmitted through any biting insect not just ticks. Also one of the lyme bacterium is a spirochete (Borrelia Berdorfi). A well known sexually transmitted disease is syphilis which is a spirochete.Till further studies prove this wrong I would assume that Lyme can be transmitted through the sharing of body fluids.
No. Some brown deer ticks do carry the spirochete that causes Lyme disease. Lyme disease is a multi-system bacterial infection caused by the spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. The spirochete is transmitted from one animal to another through the bite of the infective tick.

Lyme Disease is mainly spread through deer ticks. but it can be in any ticks
The scientific name for Lyme disease is Lyme disease. Borreliosis is a term that can be used, but it is more generic and refers to infections of any borrelia bacteria. Lyme borreliosis is more specific and can be used instead of Lyme disease.
There is no such thing as a "Lyme Tick". Are you asking what tick carries Lyme Disease? Lyme is a bacteria that a tick might be carrying. It causes Lyme Disease when it the tick bites you. It was previously thought that only Deer Ticks carry Lyme Bacteria. More and more they are finding that any tick may carry it.
"During 2002, a total of 23,763 LD cases were reported to CDC, more than in any previous year." http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5317a4.htm

Short answer: Yes. It is actually the brown tick which can be on other mammals as well as deer and dogs. ------------------------ Hi: I would add to this that any tick can be a carrier of Lyme. It is no longer thought that only deer ticks carry it. There are other tick borne diseases as well that they carry. take care, -J

Isn't it Angela Kinsey from The Office? Haven't a clue. But she's really good. She's pale, frail, skinny and weak. She's got Lyme Disease down. Too bad those of us with Chronic Lyme Disease don't get any respect.
No, bed bugs are not known to cause any diseases.
