| LymeBlog News: Virginia State Health Commissioner Warns of Lyme Disease |
A NatCapLyme Bulletin
For Virginia Health Professionals
An important
message for you from
Virginia State Health Commissioner
Karen
Remley, MD, MBA, FAAP
May 17, 2012
Dear Colleague,
Wherever you practice in Virginia, you now have to assume that any
patient exposed to ticks is at risk for Lyme disease and other
tickborne diseases. In 2011, there were 1,023 confirmed or probable
cases of Lyme disease and as you can see in the map, cases were
confirmed in all regions of the state. In preparation for what may be
a busy tick season this year, I am writing to build upon last year's
communication and to provide you with the most current information
about Lyme disease and other clinically relevant tickborne diseases
in Virginia. In addition, I want to be sure you have access to
helpful tickborne disease resources and recommended prevention
guidance to provide your patients.
