About the Event Babesiosis is a disease caused by microscopic parasites that infect red blood cells. The main way patients are infected is through a tick bite. Symptoms include fever, chills, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, sweats and anemia. This zoonotic disease has two species which exist primarily in the Northeastern and Midwest United States due to B. microti, and in Western Europe due to B. divergens. Reports of tick-borne cases within new geographical regions such as the Pacific Northwest of the US, through Eastern Europe, and into China are also on the rise. This event will cover a variety of topics including the significance and prevalence of babesiosis species in tick-borne disease patients, the biology of Babesia, its clinical features, how to effectively diagnose, as well as treatment options and suggestions. *Disclaimer, all opinions shared during this presentation are those of the presenters and not Project Lyme.
