Top tip... Remember to check for ticks after playing outside when you’ve been playing in gardens & parks around towns and cities too. These tiny, spider-like creatures attach to skin underneath clothing and can make little ones poorly. Visit: nhsinform.scot/lyme-disease

To work, would need to be light touch, embeded in EHR, with consent waiver (I think) Without doing such trials, we are stuck with little robust data to imform antibiotic choice during most critical phase of illness E.g. is Scottish strategy, using narrow(er) spectrum BL plus aminoglycoside, okay?
