Lyme is not the worst thing from ticks. Tick-borne encephalitis is much worse and can effectively leave a person disabled. There's just no treatment for it.

That's why I said there are other concerns that can be more immediate. The point was that lyme is not an inevitably or death sentence. Encephalitis is one of the more rare ones.
