[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Hybrid said to combine 'worst qualities' of two common types of Russian tick

  • The discovery comes amid swarm of ticks, said to be caused by a warmer winter

  • In one region of Siberia, reports say there are 428 times more ticks than usual

  • Concerns raised over hospitals running out of immunoglobulin to treat Lyme disease and encephalitis vaccine

  • Almost 2% of the ticks carry viral encephalitis, and a third carry Lyme disease
