minus-squarevivadanang@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·9 个月前are you suggesting tick-born illness has been weaponized by…? what, the soy milk mafia? do you have any idea how staggeringly, mind-numbingly stupid that sounds?
minus-squareNollij@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 个月前Not OP, but since it is feasible, it sounds like it would make a decent movie. I’m thinking something like Red Dawn or an eco-terrorist plot.

minus-squarestealthnerd@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·9 个月前Tick bites can cause it. Something about your body building immunity to a protein transferred by the tick that closely matches those found in beef or something like that.
minus-squareSuiXi3D@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up8·9 个月前There’s a kind of tick that, once it bites you, causes you to be deathly allergic to red meat from that point forward.
minus-squareshalafi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·9 个月前Not always! Last I heard, it can and does wear off. Might take 6-months, might take years. I gather the effect is so rare we don’t have a ton of data. But I’m often full of shit! Look it up yourself.
minus-squaredubyakay@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 个月前You are probably full of shit every day. Until you visit the loo. So don’t hold it against yourself!
minus-squareRemmock@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up6·9 个月前For a non-tick response- Prion contamination resulting in Mad Cow Disease. One meal and your brain eventually rots in moldy cheese.
minus-squarestoy@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 个月前Yep, there is, it spreads though tic bites, and once bitten you will allways get sick after eating red meat.
