Health officials are also testing for the presence of the virus in blood samples of people with no symptoms in parts of Yorkshire, where the confirmed case was infected.

Feed on blood

Ticks are small, spider-like creatures that feed on the blood of animals and people. They tend to be found in dense woodland or moorland and feed on deer.

While feeding, they can transmit viruses and infections that cause disease, with the most common being Lyme disease - a bacterial infection which can be treated with antibiotics.

Getting tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) from a tick is much less likely. เว็บ บาคาร่า
