Very interesting, and it slaps the CDC in the face with their low number of reported cases of Lyme disease.

Remember too, these are the number of positive tests from ONLY one lab (Quest) and there are many others that do Lyme tests.

QUOTE- "Outside of the northeastern U.S., California and Florida - states not historically associated with significant rates of Lyme disease - saw the largest absolute increases in positive Lyme disease test results. Notable increases also observed in Georgia, Arizona, Ohio, Texas, Tennessee and Virginia."

CDC= Center for Data Control (Incorrect data, of course)

or is it Center for Deception Coalition?
