Lyme: myths and facts

"Myth: You can’t contract Lyme disease in the winter."

"Truth: An average deer tick lives for two years and can survive in very cold climates. Although infection rates drop in the winter -- primarily because people spend less time outdoors -- it’s still possible to contract Lyme."

"Myth: All Lyme victims develop a “bull’s eye” rash."

"Truth: Although rashes are fairly common, only 30 per cent of Lyme patients report experiencing a rash, and only 9 per cent develop the classic “bull’s eye” rash."
