Lyme disease is well-known and spread by the deer tick, which has a reddish posterior. Then there is a red meat allergy, which is fatal, spread by the Lone Star tick. It has a white dot on its back.
Tick repellent with Permethrin sprayed on clothing is a very effective repellent, and repellents with DEET for the skin.
Please keep yourself safe from ticks!
Unbelievably, some people want to spread the ticks to stop people from eating red meat to "save the planet". NO JOKE!

many repulsive tick like creatures suck the mental stimulation provided by this fine forum, without giving back the physical nourishment necessary to keep this place alive...

That study only confirms what I already knew.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

The red meat allergy is called Alpha Gel Syndrome. It is not fun, but it is also not usually fatal. There have been cases of anaphylactic reaction, but generally the reaction to red meat is a more typical allergic reaction i.e. itching, hives, rash, GI issues etc. I know two guys that have had it and both recovered. Each case required 2- 2.5 years to fully get over it.
