That's really scary, I am allergic to bee and wasp stings, so I have epi-pens on hand.  Where did this tick come from, and has this been an ongoing thing, or did it just recently appear?  I am a former military NBC guy, and always worry about Bio-terrorism.  The article mentioned this, and I wonder.  I hope they stay where they are, and don't move too many places.  Steve

Sounds like vegan propaganda to me - I'm going down to the kitchen to have a steak.

My friends son has this red meat allergy. It is a allergy to the alpha gal sugar found naturally in red meat. This is a very serious allergy. Before he was diagnosed he would wake up having trouble breathing. Now he can only eat fish and poultry.
