Follow on Google News | Lyme Disease & Borrelia burgdorferi Exposed in New Online VideoThe IAQ Video Network produces another educational video about environmental dangers due to exposure to environmental contaminants and pathogens.
Borrelia burgdorferi is a species of Gram-negative bacteria. It can be found across much of North America and Europe. It is also the cause of Lyme disease, a zoonotic, vector-borne disease transmitted by ticks. The Lyme disease bacterium is spread through the bite of infected ticks. The blacklegged tick (deer tick) spreads the disease in the northeastern, mid-Atlantic, and north-central United States, and the western blacklegged tick spreads the disease on the Pacific Coast. “Ticks can attach to any part of the human body, but are often found in hard-to-see areas such as the groin, armpits and scalp,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video. “In most cases, the tick must be attached for 36-48 hours or more before the Lyme disease bacterium can be transmitted. We hope this video helps to educate people about ways to protect their health from this devastating bacteria spread by ticks.” To view this video please visit http://www.IAQTV.com or http://www.youtube.com/ To learn more please visit http://www.cochraneassoc.com, email info@cochraneassoc.com or call (602)510-3179. # # # About Cochrane & Associates, LLC & the IAQ Video Network Cochrane & Associates is a business development, public relations and marketing consulting firm that specializes in the environmental, HVAC, mold and indoor air quality industries.
