Product Information

Following an asymptomatic interval of around 7 days, there is a second clinical phase involving the CNS with presentations such as meningitis, meningoencephalitis, myelitis, paralysis and radiculitis ( 4). A third case, positive by PCR, was reported in England in September 2022, with infection likely to have been acquired in Scotland in June 2022. A fourth case, also positive by PCR, was reported in England in October 2022, with a likely exposure while visiting the North Yorkshire Moors. If left untreated more serious symptoms may develop in the following weeks or months. Lyme disease can be treated successfully with antibiotics and early treatment usually clears the rash within several days and helps to prevent the development of complications. More serious symptoms also respond to antibiotic treatment. from drinking unpasteurised milk from ruminants affected by TBE to be Very Low to Low with medium uncertainty

note 1] This pathway considers reverse-zoonosis of a pathogen already in circulation in the human population. Question 4. Is this disease endemic in animals in the UK? Yes Some human cases have been associated with consumption of unpasteurised milk or milk products from infected animals ( 13 to 15). TBEV is rarely transmitted from human to human via transplant ( 16), blood transfusion or breastfeeding ( 17). Animal studies have shown the potential for vertical transmission from an infected mother to the foetus ( 18). Infection has also been acquired accidentally in laboratories ( 19). Although no confirmed autochthonous human cases (based on EU case definition) have been reported in the UK to date, since 2019, 2 probable (based on serology) and 2 PCR-positive cases of TBEV human infection have been reported in England, one of which was likely to have been acquired in Scotland. Ixodes ricinus is usually reddish-brown, but the inflated body of fully fed females can be grey and resemble a broad bean. You may need to be retested if you still have Lyme disease symptoms after a negative result. Treatment from a GPThe impact of infection in the UK population is considered low. Question 8. Would a significant [note 1] number of people be affected? Yes This section of the assessment examines the likelihood of an infectious threat causing infection in the UK human population. Where a new agent is identified, there may be insufficient information to carry out a risk assessment and this should be clearly documented. types of blood test are available to help confirm or rule out Lyme disease. But these tests are not always accurate in the early stages of the disease. Ixodes ricinus can take up to six years to complete its life cycle, although more typically two or three. It spends much of this time on the ground between feeds. Consideration of whether vaccination of high-risk groups such as forestry workers is warranted at this stage, while further studies looking for evidence of human exposure or infection are undertaken.

Dr Tim Brooks, Head of PHE’s Rare and Imported Pathogens Laboratory ( RIPL) which tests samples for Lyme disease, said: Approximately a third of patients experience the second phase, and up to 20% of those with severe disease experience neurological sequelae. According to a 10-year follow-up survey, 80% of patients with primary myelitic disease will remain with sequelae ( 44). Overall, the mortality rate is 0.5% to 2% ( 4). Would a significant number of people be affected? Outcome The impact of infection in the UK population is considered very low. Question 5. Does it cause severe disease in humans? Yes The antibiotics you're given will depend on your symptoms, but you may need to take them for up to 28 days. It's important to finish the course, even if you start to feel better. In humans, TBE is a viral infection involving the central nervous system (CNS). It is caused by TBEV, a ribonucleic acid ( RNA) virus belonging to the genus Flavivirus that was initially isolated in 1937 in Russia.DAWN dish soap IS toxic to pets (I wrote the company and they said they don’t recommend using it on pets) telling your employer, school or higher education institution that you require a gradual return to activities The recently described TBEV-Bkl found in East Siberia and Him-TBEV has been found in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China ( 4). There were 998 provisional cases of Lyme disease reported to PHE in England and Wales in 2012 – a similar number of cases as was reported in 2011. However, not all cases of Lyme disease are confirmed by laboratory testing and, as in previous years, the overall number of Lyme disease cases in England and Wales is estimated at between 2,000 and 3,000 cases a year. Incidence of Lyme disease acquired in England and Wales remains low compared to some other European countries or in North America.

The probability of infection in the general UK population is considered very low. (Outcome) Question 9. Are humans highly susceptible? [note 2] Yes
