Alpha-gal Syndrome, Janice Hermann.
Alpha-gal syndrome (also called alpha-gal allergy, red meat allergy, or tick bite meat allergy) is a serious, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. Alpha-gal syndrome symptoms occur in some people, who have been bitten by a tick (mostly the Lone Star tick in U.S.), after they have eaten mammaliam meat or other products containing alpha-gal. Lone Star ticks are found through the southeastern and eastern United States, but have moved westward and are now found in Oklahoma.
