Lerner Graduate Fellow Mary "Emmy" Helander authored a data slice titled, Lyme Disease in the U.S.: Where is Risk Highest?, which was featured in this Pest Control Technology article. Some key takeaways are:

Over 30,000 Lyme disease cases are reported in the U.S. each year.
Lyme disease incidence is highest in the Northeast and upper Midwest.
Clear, concise, consistent and ongoing public health messaging, in addition to accurate county and state-level reporting and surveillance, are key to combatting Lyme disease.
