CDC Warns of Another Emerging Tick-Borne Threat

ol programs, Yendell said.

Commenting on the reports, Dr. Marc Siegel, an associate professor of medicine and infectious disease expert at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City, said that "babesiosis is something we physicians have to be aware of."

One of the problems is the symptoms are nonspecific, he added.

"This is not something the general public needs to be worried about, but doctors need to follow it," Siegel said. "It's not an epidemic, but it's increasing because ticks are increasing," he explained.

Siegel stressed that both of these diseases are fairly rare, and people should not be overly concerned because their odds of getting either one are very low.
