Just in case anyone was still considering visiting the USA:
"Blood-sucking ticks that trigger a bizarre allergy to meat in the people they bite are exploding in number and spreading across the US, to the extent that they could cover the entire eastern half of the country and infect millions of people, experts have warned."

@spacelizard this sounds like a spinoff from Frank Schätzings 'The Swarm'. Evolution evolves crazy stuff.
Wait... could this be a vaccination conspiracy by left-wing, green-obsessed vegans to spoil our enjoyment of animal products?
During the coronavirus pandemic, they secretly deployed vaccination mosquitoes, according to rumors. Now they might attack with ticks!
Think about it, it all makes sense...
