His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>Breakups are never pleasant. But having to \u003cem>live\u003c/em> with your ex after you break up? That’s something that a lot of people in the Bay Area have to face, thanks to increasingly high rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People like Oakland resident, Michelle, who didn’t want us to use her last name because she still cares about her ex and didn’t want to hurt his feelings. After all, they dated for 12 years. Even though they weren’t married, she says “it felt like a marriage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, they moved into a beautiful one-bedroom apartment in Oakland near Lake Merritt. It had hardwood floors, natural light and plenty of space for both of them — plus their dog and cat. Best of all, rent was relatively affordable to split.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But eventually, things started to go south. Michelle says the elements that were at first different and exciting in their relationship just lost their shine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t some massive, horrible, knock down drag out breakup,” she says. “It was just a gradual waning of feelings for each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her ex offered to move out. But when he looked for places to move \u003cem>into\u003c/em>, he couldn’t find anything affordable. Michelle had always made more money than he did, so in the meantime, they decided to go from boyfriend and girlfriend to housemates. In their one-bedroom apartment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They started by converting the living room into his bedroom and hung up a curtain for privacy. But when that proved to be too loud, they moved a twin bed into the big walk-in closet. They lived this way — Michelle sleeping in the real bedroom, her ex in the converted closet-bedroom — for a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People thought it was weird, for sure,” Michelle confesses. “It’s definitely not what people think of as ‘normal.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s actually more common that you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose family law attorney Jim Hoover says that in the last 15 years, he’s seen nearly a 20 percent increase in separated and divorced couples deciding to keep living together. And the most common reason is cost of living — it’s just too expensive to not split rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, there were awkward times for Michelle and her ex. Like when he brought his new girlfriend over. But there were also some perks.

That’s something that a lot of people in the Bay Area have to face, thanks to increasingly high rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People like Oakland resident, Michelle, who didn’t want us to use her last name because she still cares about her ex and didn’t want to hurt his feelings. After all, they dated for 12 years. Even though they weren’t married, she says “it felt like a marriage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, they moved into a beautiful one-bedroom apartment in Oakland near Lake Merritt. It had hardwood floors, natural light and plenty of space for both of them — plus their dog and cat. Best of all, rent was relatively affordable to split.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But eventually, things started to go south. Michelle says the elements that were at first different and exciting in their relationship just lost their shine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t some massive, horrible, knock down drag out breakup,” she says. “It was just a gradual waning of feelings for each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her ex offered to move out. But when he looked for places to move \u003cem>into\u003c/em>, he couldn’t find anything affordable. Michelle had always made more money than he did, so in the meantime, they decided to go from boyfriend and girlfriend to housemates. In their one-bedroom apartment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But when that proved to be too loud, they moved a twin bed into the big walk-in closet. They lived this way — Michelle sleeping in the real bedroom, her ex in the converted closet-bedroom — for a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People thought it was weird, for sure,” Michelle confesses. “It’s definitely not what people think of as ‘normal.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s actually more common that you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose family law attorney Jim Hoover says that in the last 15 years, he’s seen nearly a 20 percent increase in separated and divorced couples deciding to keep living together. And the most common reason is cost of living — it’s just too expensive to not split rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, there were awkward times for Michelle and her ex.

About 14,000 residents were forced from their homes in 2017, many without receiving warnings that flooding was imminent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We committed with Valley Water and the county to not have an incident like (Coyote Creek) to take place again,” Neaves said. “This demonstration is proof of that. … We’ve been taking this incident very seriously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Marin County, California Highway Patrol reported a levee breach near Highway 37 in Novato.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/MarinSheriff/status/1096124038659768321\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the Marin County Department of Public Works said no homes are threatened, but it will be at least a couple of days before the water recedes enough for officials to begin examining the damage and making repairs. As the evening commute neared, CHP officers and Caltrans engineers were monitoring the rising water along the highway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farther north, the Napa and Russian rivers both continued to rise and are now expected to crest at 4 feet above flood stage overnight. As much as a foot of rain has fallen in the Russian River’s watershed since Tuesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David Rabbitt, chairman of the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors, says that’s better than expected. “There will be a little cleanup to do in some parking lots and some properties that are closer to the river, but we should do fine,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Guerneville School District announced, however, it would be closed on Friday due to flooding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Napa River is expected to top out just above flood stage at both St. Helena and the north side of the city of Napa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Sausalito, a duplex slid off its foundation and into another residence on Crescent Avenue, possibly because of a mudslide.

Only a handful of vehicles were damaged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E reported 17,732 Bay Area customers were still without power as of about 3 p.m. — down from a high of over 31,000 around noon Thursday, as high winds raked much of the region. The regional breakdown at the peak of power outages: North Bay, 9,500; East Bay, 11,241; South Bay, 1,564; Peninsula, 6,409; San Francisco, 3,110.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The weather also continues to cause delays and cancellations at Bay Area airports. A spokesman for San Francisco International Airport said 115 of its 1,250 flights have been canceled so far, mostly routes up and down the West Coast. And 315 flights at SFO have been delayed. Six flights were canceled at Oakland International Airport, due to weather conditions in Las Vegas, San Diego and Seattle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Totals for the previous 48 hours through 1:15 p.m. Thursday include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chart: Bay Area Rainfall Totals Over Last 48 Hours\" aria-describedby=\"Storm totals through 11:15 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 14.\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-dDvgp\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/dDvgp/2/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"1049\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 6:55 p.m. Wednesday:\u003c/strong> More than 8,000 people in the Bay Area were without power Wednesday afternoon following the first wave of a potent atmospheric river storm that has drenched the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pacific Gas and Electric Co. said 8,053 Bay Area customers were without electricity as of 5 p.m. Wednesday, down from nearly twice that many just a few hours earlier. The vast majority of those still without power — more than 5,000 customers — are in the South Bay, with another 1,665 in the North Bay and just fewer than 1,000 on the Peninsula.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A PG&E spokesman said that, with more stormy weather on the way, trees, tree limbs and other debris may fall on power lines, damaging equipment and interrupting service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The storm has also brought some impressive rainfall totals and the promise of serious flooding on the Russian River.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, the National Weather Service reported that downtown San Francisco had already set a new daily record for rain on Feb. 13 with 2.13 inches, with more rain expected later in the afternoon and evening.

It also issued a flood warning for the area around the Napa River starting at 11 a.m. Thursday until further notice. Forecasters expect the river to rise above flood stage around noon on Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/danbrekke/status/1095827181027057664\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The storm prompted 135 flight cancellations at San Francisco International Airport and 11 at Oakland International Airport on Wednesday, with most of the affected flights involving departures to and arrivals from Southern California and other West Coast locations. An SFO spokesman said about 300 of their 1,250 flights were experiencing average delays of about 80 to 90 minutes through the afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least one school district, Two Rock Union in Sonoma County, closed early Wednesday due to flooding, and the Guerneville School District will be closed on Thursday, also due to flooding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area transit agencies also reported delays — 10 minutes on some BART lines and up to 20 minutes late on some Caltrain trips. Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District said Wednesday night that ferry service in Tiburon on Thursday could be affected due to high winds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NWSBayArea/status/1095860042446893057\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The North Bay, which had the heaviest rainfall by far, experienced the most serious effects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scattered road closures were reported across Sonoma County, including roadways in or near Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park, Petaluma, Bodega Bay, Sebastopol, Forestville and Valley Ford.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several roads in and around Windsor, just north of Santa Rosa, experienced significant flooding. That prompted a road closure at Windsor Road and Skylane Boulevard, and local firefighters helped drivers whose vehicles had stalled in water that came up to the wheel wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/kentphotos/status/1095701334794194944\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Weather Service Bay Area office also issued a flood warning for some North Bay creeks and a flood advisory for Bay Area locations with poor drainage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NWS also issued a coastal flood advisory for parts of the coastline and bay shoreline from 4 to 8 a.m. Thursday, saying southerly winds and excessive rainfall combined with the high tide could result in coastal flooding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.rossvalleyfire.org/services/creek-levels-weather\">Marin County creeks\u003c/a> also showed sharp rises early Wednesday, though all appeared to have crested before reaching flood stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And creeks surged elsewhere, too.

The storm is expected to spread a daylong steady rain over the region on Wednesday, broken up by intermittent heavy downpours. For a finale, the weather system is forecast to unload a second wallop of atmospheric river-fed rain early Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those forecast conditions, on top of a landscape saturated by recent storms, have led the National Weather Service to issue a flash flood watch for the entire Bay Area from late Tuesday through late Thursday morning. A high-wind warning is in effect for higher terrain — elevations of 1,000 feet and up.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11723249/weather-geek-why-do-some-parts-of-the-bay-area-always-get-more-rain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\">Weather Geek, Why Do Some Parts of the Bay Area Always Get More Rain?\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11723249/weather-geek-why-do-some-parts-of-the-bay-area-always-get-more-rain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/GettyImages-631415386-e1549313950719.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Brian Garcia, the warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service’s Bay Area office in Monterey, said the combination of rain, soaked soil and high winds portends trouble.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to put some decent gusts on top of the saturated soil — we’ll probably see a lot of trees down and power outages,” Garcia said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NOAA’s California-Nevada River Forecast Center’s Coastal forecast rain totals through Friday are ranging from nearly 9 inches in northern Sonoma County to 5 inches in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Much of the North Bay is expected to receive 3 to 5 inches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Totals at lower elevations are projected to range from 2-plus inches in San Francisco and Oakland to between 1.5 inches and 2 inches along the bay shore and East Bay valleys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That heavy rainfall is expected to cause a rapid rise on the Russian River, which is forecast to crest about 2 feet above flood stage late Thursday. Flows are expected to spike on the Napa River, too, with the river cresting just below flood stage at St. Helena and downtown Napa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the rest of California is in for a thrashing, too. Of special concern are conditions in the Sierra Nevada and its western foothills, which have received extremely heavy snowfall in the past two weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incoming storm is expected to cause snow levels to rise from 2,000 to 3,000 feet Tuesday night to 6,000 to 8,000 feet during the day Wednesday. That means that for some part of the storm, rain will fall on the snowpack.

He lives in Oakland and was recently on a trip to Los Angeles and was struck by it’s size and how long you could take to cross that single city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas up here, many people drive through multiple cities just to get to work each day. And those cities aren’t always working together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So Cupertino adds jobs at Apple, and Cupertino says, ‘We’ll pass on housing, it’s not our thing.’ And then the next town over says, ‘That’s not our thing either.’ And all of a sudden you’re all the way in Tracy,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reid wonders if there’s a way to stop cities from “passing” on building housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He asked Bay Curious: “If the Bay Area united to become one city, would that solve some of our problems?”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Things Are Now\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Downtown Redwood City has a lot to offer its residents — transit lines that connect to all over the Bay Area, a variety of restaurants and shops, and plenty of jobs in its many office buildings. To Maureen Sedonaen, CEO at Habitat for Humanity Greater San Francisco, it was an ideal place for a new affordable housing project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, Sedonaen proposed a nine-story building with 46 units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The housing crisis] is a national problem. It’s a statewide problem. And in particular it’s heightened and underlined in our region,” Sedonaen says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But to win approval from the city, Habitat’s proposal was cut by more than half — down to 20 units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then a neighbor, with a history of obstructing development projects, \u003ca href=\"http://www.capradio.org/articles/2018/07/09/is-californias-legacy-environmental-law-protecting-the-states-beauty-or-blocking-affordable-housing/\">halted the project\u003c/a> for more than a year. He cited an environmental concern, saying the building would increase traffic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than three years later, the lot Sedonaen hopes to build on still sits empty with a price tag that keeps on growing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Folks are going to live next door to people who tried to stop them from having their home. And that’s hard,” Sedonaen says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the housing crisis is a regional problem, local governments and their constituents have a huge say on how much affordable housing to allow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people in the Bay Area, particularly those that have stable housing, are very comfortable. They like what they have. When they see something new, they see only the downsides of the new,” says Egon Terplan, regional planning director at SPUR, a nonprofit focused on planning and government in the Bay Area. “We in California have turned over the idea of how much housing effectively to allow to the smallest unit of government, to a local government, which is the city, or the county in unincorporated areas.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When land use is decided by local governments, it’s easier for vocal locals to protest projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The people that are making the decision about how much growth to have in a community are the people who are there now,” Terplan says. “These voters tend to be slightly older and tend to be homeowners. … They’re not necessarily thinking about the next generation, or the millions of people who would like to be a part of this region.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Locals protest new buildings for all kinds of reasons. They might say that a development is ugly, it blocks the sun, it isn’t affordable or it will create traffic. Terplan says while traffic fears could be addressed by building densely around transit, or creating more bike-friendly streets, for some it still might be too much change too fast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11691520\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11691520\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-1020x695.jpg\" alt=\"The flow of traffic on the Bay Bridge\" width=\"640\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-1020x695.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-800x545.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-1200x818.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-1180x804.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-960x654.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-240x164.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-375x255.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h-520x354.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/15766762449_e9aa1ebc7a_h.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The flow of traffic on the Bay Bridge \u003ccite>(David Yu/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Politicians have lost their jobs for being to willing to develop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Redwood City had a very good plan for growing its downtown, and evolving and enabling growth around rail.

After all, this region has a legacy of regional projects like the Save the Bay movement, which halted large-scale polluters and stopped cities from paving over the San Francisco Bay. Our regional parks are another example, which preserved the hills of the East Bay and the coast of Marin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what if we looked at a regional approach to housing?

They like what they have.

If you’re worried, you could ship the offending bug to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.tickreport.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">private testing service\u003c/a> to find out. But between August 2016 and January 2017, you could have gotten a free analysis by sending it to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nietolab.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nathan Nieto\u003c/a>‘s lab at Northern Arizona University. You’d get back info on the critter that bit you and, if applicable, a pathology report.[contextly_sidebar id=”vQtnCzXhkQcs89CEeEPJrr32XWz2BjaR”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nieto’s project wasn’t just a goodwill gesture: It was an unprecedented attempt to include the public in tick research. Nieto, a microbiologist at Northern Arizona University, and his team published \u003ca href=\"http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0199644\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the results\u003c/a> of their brief tick-collecting experiment Thursday in \u003cem>PLOS One\u003c/em>. They say it shows the potential of citizen science to fill in gaps in research—and that data gathered this way could ultimately help form a more proactive public health response when it comes to identifying and preventing tick-borne disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public health officials track the number of reported cases of tick-borne diseases, and researchers can study ticks in their local habitats. But when it comes to assessing the risk of potential infection from tick-born pathogens, figuring out which ticks commonly bite humans, what pathogens they carry, and how many people actually get sick from bites, the picture’s always been blurry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now. Usually, Nieto says, scientists collect around 100 ticks at a time for local research using surprisingly low-tech methods (such as dragging a long swath of fabric behind a truck, then counting the number of ticks it catches). In this case, researchers received thousands of ticks. Most had been removed from humans or dogs—and there were many more than they originally planned for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We budgeted for 2,400,” says Nieto. “Then all of a sudden it was over 16,000.” The massive response shows how hungry the public is for information on the ticks that bite them, he says. In the meantime, it fed scientists an unexpectedly large dataset, and information on ticks from 49 states and Puerto Rico.[contextly_sidebar id=”ohPookGuQNsrQ7oV2MNauvfZDjgmSRp5″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once ticks made their way into the lab, the team identified them and tested them for four tick-born pathogens, including \u003cem>Borrelia burgdorferi\u003c/em>, the bacterium that causes Lyme disease. They sent information on the pathogen back to the people who submitted ticks and mapped their geographic distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though researchers weren’t on the hunt for new tick-borne pathogens, they did uncover some surprises. Unexpected ticks turned up in unexpected locations, like Lone Star ticks you’d expect to find in the Southeast as far north as Maine and as far west as California. And ticks capable of carrying Lyme disease were reported in 83 counties where they hadn’t been recorded before. A few rare ticks turned up, too, though none of them carried pathogens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Nieto, the real point was to show how citizens might help fill in a gray area between incidence and risk, documenting human and animal exposure to ticks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can use this data to show when risk is actually happening in the system,” says Nieto. “It ends up being predictive.” The data could be lined up to reports of tick-borne disease in a certain geographic area, for example, to show how long it takes for people to report illness or to help public health officials brace for next year’s tick season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The researchers note that gathering data at this scale wouldn’t be possible without citizen scientists — and future studies of this type could help improve understanding of tick-borne disease.[contextly_sidebar id=”clkhy1Xj8UN6TWA04SmgdSJIeSSTp8ZO”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a great example of using citizen science to ask questions about the ecology of infectious disease,” says \u003ca href=\"https://profiles.stanford.edu/katharine-walter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Katharine Walter\u003c/a>, an epidemiologist at Stanford University who has studied the prevalence and spread of tick-borne diseases. Walter, who did not participate in the research, says that a longer-term project could yield real insights not just into disease, but climate change and human impacts on their environment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the power of science,” says Walter. “I really believe that scientific research shouldn’t be just for scientists.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study’s authors admit there are some real limitations to their work. They didn’t find out if and where people had traveled before they found the ticks. Since ticks can hang out on the body for days, they could have traveled along with people or animals on the move and resulted in misreporting. Nieto says his team didn’t ask for the data out of privacy concerns and a desire to encourage participation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another limitation is that people who never hear about a citizen science initiative can’t participate, and the study wasn’t advertised beyond an initial PR campaign conducted by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.bayarealyme.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Lyme Foundation\u003c/a>, which funded the project. Socioeconomic barriers to the internet may also have limited participants, and there’s no way to verify how many participants misreported information about the ticks that bit them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s next for the tick collectors? First, says Nieto, they’ll dig deeper into the ticks’ DNA, and hopefully open up another wave of free tick analysis in an attempt to broaden the data even more. From there, says Nieto, it’s up to others to use the dataset for good.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have this information,” he says. “Now we need some technology or changes in behavior that are going to help us actually prevent infection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Erin Blakemore is a science writer based in Boulder, Colo. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

If you’re worried, you could ship the offending bug to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.tickreport.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">private testing service\u003c/a> to find out. But between August 2016 and January 2017, you could have gotten a free analysis by sending it to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nietolab.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nathan Nieto\u003c/a>‘s lab at Northern Arizona University. You’d get back info on the critter that bit you and, if applicable, a pathology report.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nieto’s project wasn’t just a goodwill gesture: It was an unprecedented attempt to include the public in tick research. Nieto, a microbiologist at Northern Arizona University, and his team published \u003ca href=\"http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0199644\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the results\u003c/a> of their brief tick-collecting experiment Thursday in \u003cem>PLOS One\u003c/em>. They say it shows the potential of citizen science to fill in gaps in research—and that data gathered this way could ultimately help form a more proactive public health response when it comes to identifying and preventing tick-borne disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public health officials track the number of reported cases of tick-borne diseases, and researchers can study ticks in their local habitats. But when it comes to assessing the risk of potential infection from tick-born pathogens, figuring out which ticks commonly bite humans, what pathogens they carry, and how many people actually get sick from bites, the picture’s always been blurry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now. Usually, Nieto says, scientists collect around 100 ticks at a time for local research using surprisingly low-tech methods (such as dragging a long swath of fabric behind a truck, then counting the number of ticks it catches). In this case, researchers received thousands of ticks. Most had been removed from humans or dogs—and there were many more than they originally planned for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We budgeted for 2,400,” says Nieto. “Then all of a sudden it was over 16,000.” The massive response shows how hungry the public is for information on the ticks that bite them, he says. In the meantime, it fed scientists an unexpectedly large dataset, and information on ticks from 49 states and Puerto Rico.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They sent information on the pathogen back to the people who submitted ticks and mapped their geographic distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though researchers weren’t on the hunt for new tick-borne pathogens, they did uncover some surprises. Unexpected ticks turned up in unexpected locations, like Lone Star ticks you’d expect to find in the Southeast as far north as Maine and as far west as California. And ticks capable of carrying Lyme disease were reported in 83 counties where they hadn’t been recorded before. A few rare ticks turned up, too, though none of them carried pathogens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Nieto, the real point was to show how citizens might help fill in a gray area between incidence and risk, documenting human and animal exposure to ticks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can use this data to show when risk is actually happening in the system,” says Nieto. “It ends up being predictive.” The data could be lined up to reports of tick-borne disease in a certain geographic area, for example, to show how long it takes for people to report illness or to help public health officials brace for next year’s tick season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The researchers note that gathering data at this scale wouldn’t be possible without citizen scientists — and future studies of this type could help improve understanding of tick-borne disease.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a great example of using citizen science to ask questions about the ecology of infectious disease,” says \u003ca href=\"https://profiles.stanford.edu/katharine-walter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Katharine Walter\u003c/a>, an epidemiologist at Stanford University who has studied the prevalence and spread of tick-borne diseases. Walter, who did not participate in the research, says that a longer-term project could yield real insights not just into disease, but climate change and human impacts on their environment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the power of science,” says Walter. “I really believe that scientific research shouldn’t be just for scientists.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study’s authors admit there are some real limitations to their work. They didn’t find out if and where people had traveled before they found the ticks. Since ticks can hang out on the body for days, they could have traveled along with people or animals on the move and resulted in misreporting. Nieto says his team didn’t ask for the data out of privacy concerns and a desire to encourage participation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another limitation is that people who never hear about a citizen science initiative can’t participate, and the study wasn’t advertised beyond an initial PR campaign conducted by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.bayarealyme.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Lyme Foundation\u003c/a>, which funded the project. Socioeconomic barriers to the internet may also have limited participants, and there’s no way to verify how many participants misreported information about the ticks that bit them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s next for the tick collectors? First, says Nieto, they’ll dig deeper into the ticks’ DNA, and hopefully open up another wave of free tick analysis in an attempt to broaden the data even more. From there, says Nieto, it’s up to others to use the dataset for good.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have this information,” he says. “Now we need some technology or changes in behavior that are going to help us actually prevent infection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Erin Blakemore is a science writer based in Boulder, Colo. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.
