Lyme disease is expected to pose higher-than-average risk this year, the Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC) reports. The group has released its 2023 Pet Parasite Forecast and corresponding 30-day Pet Parasite Forecast maps, alerting veterinarians and pet owners of impending outbreaks across the U.S. and Canada. CAPC predicts instances of Lyme, transmitted by the black-legged (deer) tick vector ( Ixodes scapularis ), will be higher than average throughout 2023, with continued expansion southward and westward outside of the historically high-risk areas in the Northeast and Upper Midwest, including Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the upper peninsula of Michigan. A higher-than-normal risk is also expected in North Dakota, northeastern South Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, and eastern Kentucky. Further, CAPC reports a northern expansion into Canada, including southern regions of Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba, as well as on New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, due to increased Lyme detection in Cana...

The eponymous sign outside Epic headquarters in Verona, Wisconsin. Source: Yiem via Wikipedia CC Epic Systems, the largest provider of software for managing medical records, says a venture-backed startup called Particle Health is using patient data in unauthorized and unethical ways that have nothing to do with treatment. Epic told customers in a notice on Thursday that it cut off its connection to Particle, hindering the company's ability to tap a system with more than 300 million patient records. Particle is one of several companies that acts as a sort of middleman between Epic and the organizations — typically hospitals and clinics — that need the data. Patient data is inherently sensitive and valuable, and it's protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, a federal law that requires a patient's consent or knowledge for third-party access. One way Epic's electronic health records (EHR) are accessed is through an interoperability net...

PUEBLO COUNTY, Colo. -- A case of plague has been confirmed in a person in Pueblo County, Colorado, officials said Tuesday. The case was flagged Friday from preliminary test results, and the potential source of the infection is still under investigation, the Pueblo Department of Public Health and Environment said in a news release. The plague is an infectious disease caused by bacterium, Yersinia pestis, transmitted by fleas. Although it is best known for "The Black Death," an outbreak that killed millions of Europeans during the Middle Ages, the bacteria circulates naturally among wild rodents and rarely infects humans today, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Plague is transmitted to humans through bites from infected fleas, contact with infected animals or inhaling droplets from the cough of an infected person or animal. Anyone who develops symptoms of plague should get medical attention immediately, the CDC says. Typical symptoms include sudde...
