The ability of a material to conduct electrical energy is known as its conductivity. Not surprisingly, materials that are good conductors have high conductivity, while materials that are good insulators have low conductivity.
Babesiosis is a rare, severe and sometimes fatal tick-borne disease caused by various types of Babesia, a microscopic parasite that infects red blood cells. In New York state, the causative parasite is Babesia microti.
Complications of babesiosis can include: 1  a low and unstable blood pressure; 2  severe hemolytic anemia (hemolysis); 3  a very low platelet count (thrombocytopenia); 4  disseminated intravascular coagulation (also known as âDICâ or consumptive coagulopathy), which can lead to blood clots and bleeding;
