The World Health Organization had reported that the patient had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals.
Borrelia bacteria causes lyme disease
The average time taken to assess this condition is two years due to insufficient knowledge of the topic and confusion over similar symptoms.

A tobacco user's organism spends too many resources repairing the damage. “It's like putting out a big, urgent fire,” says one expert.
The photograph shows a person sitting and leaning against a pillow with sunlight streaming through a window. They are holding a transparent glass with a beverage, possibly water, and seem to be in the process of drinking or about to drink.

José A. Morales, a professor and researcher at the Complutense University of Madrid, explains what happens to our brain.
Illustration of morphine (left, red) and fentanyl (right, red) molecules binding to mu-opioid receptors (blue) in a cell membrane. Opioid receptors are found on nerve cells. When pain is detected by the body, endorphins are released and attach to the receptors, starting a reaction that modulates pain perception.
These findings open new possibilities for developing more effective treatments for opioid addiction.
