All,
I recently read First death reported from meat allergy caused by tick bite (November 13, 2025) and passed it along to Kathy. Wow…unreal. After making the previous post Ticks & Lyme Disease, two Wall Street Journal articles on the topic back in July I had planned to follow up with this and then saw After a Mysterious Death, a Family’s Quest for Answers Leads to a Tick and had to post them both.
Did anyone know that there was “…an increasingly common tick-borne meat allergy that can be fatal” called alpha-gal syndrome? Dear Lord…until reading these I was clueless.
I want to point this material out because it honestly wasn’t even on my radar. If you start getting sick after eating a meal, please consider this while evaluating yourself. Like the widow lady said in the second article, this sounds like something out of a bad movie…
