Anybody have any Information or statistics on how prevalent morgellons is in the UK?

Some information from the BBC:

The potential for being bitten by a diseased tick is becoming more common in the UK, scientists have found.
They also say that people in the UK are often unaware that they can catch Lyme disease and other serious infections without going overseas.

Scientists from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine blamed increased foreign travel and a relaxation of the quarantine laws for more exotic ticks being imported into the UK. Those ticks bring with them diseases like encephalitis and typhus.

Whats next for them Morgellons?
