Answer:

If your doctor asks you if a tick or mosquito has bitten you then you have contracted a vector-borne pathogen.

What are vector-borne diseases?

Vector-borne diseases are infections transmitted by the bite of infected arthropod species, such as mosquitoes, ticks, triatomine bugs, sandflies, and blackflies.

Arthropod vectors are cold-blooded (ectothermic) and thus especially sensitive to climatic factors.
