Where were ticks submitted within Quebec in 2020?

This interactive map displays where ticks were encountered and submitted to Geneticks from within Quebec in 2020. Clicking on individual tick entries will display the details associated with that submission. Each entry has been stripped of identifying information and the coordinates gently randomized to protect user anonymity. The default display shows ticks that tested positive (Red) and negative (Green) for General Borrelia species. This setting can be toggled by pressing the icon in the top left corner of the map to display ticks by type (Genus, Species) or pathogens detected (Borrelia species, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, Borrelia miyamotoi, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia microti, Babesia duncani, Bartonella species).

The details of individual submitted ticks can be viewed by selecting icons on the map.
