Lyme Disease in the Hudson Valley area

New York State currently has the highest number of confirmed cases of Lyme disease in the United States and the Hudson Valley is specifically considered a high-risk area.
 
Lyme disease is a bacterial infection spread through the bite of infected ticks. Tick exposure can occur year-round, but ticks are most active in the warmer months (April-September) and are much more prevalent following milder winter seasons.
