The tick-borne disease—which singer Justin Timberlake revealed this week he has been suffering from—is increasing in the U.S. both in range and frequency.

As pop star Justin Timberlake concluded his world tour earlier this week, the “SexyBack” singer shared on Thursday in a social media post that he has been grappling with health issues and a diagnosis of Lyme disease.

When Justin Timberlake revealed that he’s been battling Lyme disease on Instagram, it lit up the internet. Some people sent well-wishes, others asked questions about the illness, and a few—of course—propagated bucket loads of misinformation.
