    The Defense Health Agency Public Health MilTICK program suggests following this checklist to help protect yourself from tick-borne disease. The MilTICK SURE Path program, a national surveillance effort short for Surveillance for Understudied, Rare, and Emerging Pathogens, recently identified ticks carrying Powassan virus in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and, for the first time, Maryland. The program also confirmed the first Heartland virus–positive tick at Fort Knox, Kentucky. [Defense Health Agency-Public Health graphic illustration by Rachel Stershic)
