I just participated in a national virtual meeting with Congressional reps, organized through the Center for Lyme Action. We asked our reps to add another 70 million to FY22 appropriations! We're at 91 million now.
This will be divvied out to research and education through the CDC, NIAID, and DoD.
I'll make a post about it in Activism so please go there to discuss!

Robin, that is wonderful. Thanks so much for your effort.
I am hoping that good things will come from Covid. So many people have long haulers syndrome and will be on disability. Add that to all the people with lyme and cos on disability, with that number increasing each year. That has to inspire more research.
I am hoping that what is learned about long haulers syndrome can be used in researching lyme and visa versa.
