Tickborne Diseases | NEJM

In this Double Take video from the New England Journal of Medicine, Sam Telford
and Robert Smith provide a clinical overview of the various tickborne diseases
commonly encountered across the United States, including Lyme disease,
babesiosis, and anaplasmosis, among others. Starting with characteristics of
ticks and their ability to act as disease vectors, the video reviews the clinical
presentation of these infections, clues on physical examination, and laboratory
tests to consider when encountering a patient with a potential tickborne
infection.
