Where In The U.S Are You Most Likely To Get Lyme Disease?

Lyme disease is caused by a bacterial infection that is spread by ticks. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that there are around 300,000 new infections in the U.S. each year. Lyme disease is most common in the Northeast, particularly the area within a 100-mile radius of New York City. This is because the deer tick that spreads Lyme disease is most active in spring and summer, and this is when most people tend to spend time outdoors. However, ticks are active in all seasons, so people all over the country can get Lyme disease.
