Lyme disease-carrying ticks found near beaches at equal rates as wooded areas, study says

WNBA player with Lyme disease denied exemption from upcoming season
Elena Delle Donne of the Washington Mystics was denied by the league to be exempted from the 2020 season due to her illness putting her at higher risk for contracting the novel coronavirus.
A study analyzing the prevalence of Lyme disease-carrying ticks in Northern California, more commonly associated with wooded habitats, found that the insects were just as abundant in coastal areas. Beaches and lizard habitats can no longer be considered havens from ticks, said Linda Giampa, executive director at Bay Area Lyme Foundation, which funded the research. Based on this new data, we are now encouraging residents to take preventative measures in beach areas and encouraging healthcare providers to learn the symptoms of tick-borne infections beyond Lyme disease.

A new study found that blacklegged ticks were just as common in beach grass and vegetation leading to the sand as wooded areas in Northern California.
The beach ticks were also slightly more likely to carry the bacteria that causes Lyme disease than those found in the woods, the researchers found.
Experts explain where you can encounter ticks at the beach and how to stay safe this summer.
It’s rare to feel any worries while you’re at the beach you’re probably there to relax, after all. But if anything is bound to put a damper on your day, it’s the possibility of a rogue jellyfish or a feisty crab popping up when you least expect it, right?
