Default lone star tick sighting

I am not a big fan of the CDC for a whole lot of reasons. The main one
being that their statistics on Lyme are all wrong since they only
track a % of patients (those who make antibodies).

Lyme can kill you. But it usually takes longer than one week. Rocky
Mountain still does not compare to the tick disease Ehrlichiosis in
killing power.

One big thing I noticed..the CDC also needs to update their
information. STARI or Southern Tick Associated Rash Illness was
renamed Master's Disease over a year ago!!
