Reports of Lyme Disease in Florida
1,566
Total cases of lyme disease confirmed in Florida (2000 to 2016)
Note:
Due to the fact that the CDC's data only represents confirmed cases, the actual quantity of Lyme disease cases may be far greater. We estimate a total of 15,660 true cases of Lyme disease in Florida.
