The government is very afraid to blow the lid off just how many people really are infected (and chronically infected despite their quick treatment guideline.)
Slowly we keep prying it off.
And co- infections? When does Lyme travel alone anymore?

Not surprising to get this crap from the reporter, who has never gotten anything right about lyme. But why is WGBH involved? They are sure going to lose a lot of supporters over this. And public television cannot be in worse shape than it is now, financially.
Let 'em know they have made a big mistake in hosting this lousy piece of work. That woman is no journalist, just a hack that has found an easy target and just keeps on at it, instead of finding other stories to write about.

She left the Boston Globe and moved on "The New England Center for Investigative Reporting", which is a collaborative of NRP, NPR colloborates with WGBH.
Her story also got picked up by the Huffington Post. It appears that she will be doing a live chat tomorrow. See below for a quick description.
"Tune in right here at 12 p.m. ET on Wednesday, June 18, for a one-hour live chat featuring Daley, Dr. Paul Mead, M.D., M.P.H, chief of epidemiology and surveillance for CDC’s Lyme disease program, and Dr. Arefa Cassoobhoy, M.D., a medical editor at WebMD, to discuss Lyme disease testing and its intricacies."

Oops...here's the link in case anyone is interested in tuning in.
Oh great. I thought we could at least count on Huffington since they had done that whole series which was very good. Can't we have one place where they tell the whole truth. It sure isn't going to come from Paul Mead.

Ugh. Probably getting a kick back from the CDC's Barbara Johnson,
who has a patent on the lousy inaccurate ELISA and Western Blot done by mainstream medical.
Wonder if this 'reporter' will mention the new state law that was passed (in Virginia? I forget the state, but it's east coast)
that they now have to include a document with the results of the ELISA test that basically states: By the way, this test is a piece of crap!
God. My CHILD is back in Lyme treatment again. She got it congenitally from me.
