Looks like they are getting on the "bandwagon"...similar research earlier.

This was all I could find:
http://www.pidj.com/pt/re/pidj/fulltext.00006454-200506000-00029.htm
http://www.pidj.com/pt/re/pidj/abstract.00006454-200412000-00007.htm (earlier, different authors)

This is an interesting site:

I looked on the ILADS site yesterday, could not find it.

There is a $25 charge to view it on the other site.

I have a copy of that and also a copy of a FURTHER reaction to the reply by the original authors. Its pretty stinging... the whole thing looks bad and is kind of upsetting. More academic spitting and fighting.

I found the orginal article on the CDC website. [URL=http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/lyme/resources/LD_Internet.pdf]
I didn't find the rebuttal letter

Yes, I have that letter, and also a further response from the original authors. I don't think I can post it here - do you want me to email it to you or something?

Barb, what is a brief summary of the letter in question since I have no background on what you posted about. I'm sure you have raised the curiousity of other lymies here as well. Thanks Barb.

Just wanted to add that since our letter writing campaign to Amy Norton and Reuters Health News that gave so much undeserved fame to the original article, they so far have stayed away from the topic of Lyme Disease.

Has Anybody kept her email address so she can get a copy of the responses?

KLP--I've also been looking for this text. would you email me too? finchwar @ yahoo.com

Or could someone who has it (the text and the responses) email me? KLP's kind offer seems to have landed her with a load of emailing!

Thanks.
