The CDC and the University of Kansas Hospital has determined that a Kansas farmer has died from a tick borne virus never before seen in the United States. Since the illness transmitted by the tick was a virus, it did not respond to antibiotic treatment and the infected man died in just 10 days.
I sure hope this remains an isolated case and doesn't spread.
