Schools fight back against lyme disease with classroom lessons

NCT ID NCT00594997

Summary

This study tested whether a fun, in-class educational program could help prevent Lyme disease in children. Researchers taught kids aged 7-12 in high-risk areas how to avoid tick bites, check for ticks, and make their yards safer. They then compared the number of new Lyme disease cases and the kids' prevention habits between those who got the lessons and those who did not.
