Jaundice is a common condition in newborns. It refers to the yellow color of the skin and whites of the eyes caused by an excess of bilirubin in the blood.

Lyme disease is an infection caused by a kind of bacterium (germ) called a spirochete (say: "spy-ro-keet"). The disease is carried by deer ticks (found in the northeastern and north-central United States) and western black-legged ticks (found mostly on the Pacific Coast). These ticks can spread the disease to animals and humans through tick bites. These ticks are typically about the size of a sesame seed.
