The aim is to identify how demographic factors influence Lyme disease knowledge among parents in endemic areas.
Analyzed demographic data of parents in a high Lyme disease area
Evaluated knowledge levels regarding Lyme disease
Assessed how social determinants affect disease risk
Higher adverse social determinants correlate with lower Lyme disease knowledge
Parents in lower socioeconomic groups demonstrate significant knowledge gaps
Targeted educational efforts could address these disparities effectively
Abstract
Our findings highlight the role of adverse social determinants of health on Lyme disease risk, underscoring the need for focused educational interventions on high-risk populations.
