Art and TBE (tick-borne encephalitis)

An odd combination. But, we visited the Tartu University and their art exhibition. There were a lot of copies made in plaster of the great art from back in the days. I saw these ticks on several of the statues and had to ask what was going on. The answer was that they applied fake ticks to a number of their exhibited statues as a way to make people take vaccin against the TBE - the tick-borne encephalitis.
