Get your vaccines, check for ticks after enjoying nature, and immediately visit a doctor if you still get sick.
Is there a vaccine for the one that makes you allergic to meat?
There are worse diseases to catch from ticks
Ok? I'm not asking about those.
Ok? I was talking about those.
Great, and I asked a follow up question about a very specific one. If the reply to my question is not the answer then it's worthless. Thankfully someone else actually gave me the information I asked for instead of wasting everyone's time with useless replies.
What does meat allergy have to do with ticks?
Not the person you're replying to but you can get Alpha-gal Syndrome (causing potentially deadly allergies to red meat) from the lone star tick so I can see why it would be a natural follow up question to this discussion.
Oh okay, that's my bad then. I had never heard of that before.
All good I just figured you didn't know by your response so I thought I'd share if not just because it's interesting (and scary as hell).
