Boy his arms must be sore from shoveling so much crap.
Oh, wait so if I go to John Hopkins(which I have done) they will find out exactly what's wrong with me and get me on the right path to feeling better? Yeahhh I am so happy.
Funny, because after a whole day there they sent me packing with the advise to make an appt. with a pysch because nothing was wrong with me.
We really need to get some ticks in his bed and then send HIM to a pysch.

Really, that only makes them look worse. "Under Our Skin" was about 100 times more convincing than their stupid little video.
This shows that they feel very threatened now, which is a wonderful thing. It shows that we've made a big impact.

Oh he longs for the day when patients didn't know a whole lot. When we went away satisfied that at least the doctor tried all he could.
Well sorry mister two weeks of antibiotics and that's all we can do for you. Maybe you want to retrain for another profession because there are doctors helping us.

That doctor is the lead author of The Lancet article from a month or so ago, the one that begins as such:
Advocacy for Lyme disease has become an increasingly important part of an antiscience movement that denies both the viral cause of AIDS and the benefits of vaccines and that supports unproven (sometimes dangerous) alternative medical treatments. Some activists portray Lyme disease, a geographically limited tick-borne infection, as a disease that is insidious, ubiquitous, difficult to diagnose, and almost incurable; they also propose that the disease causes mainly non-specific symptoms that can be treated only with long-term antibiotics and other unorthodox and unvalidated treatments. Similar to other antiscience groups, these advocates have created a pseudoscientific and alternative selection of practitioners, research, and publications and have coordinated public protests, accused opponents of both corruption and conspiracy, and spurred legislative efforts to subvert evidence-based medicine and peer-reviewed science. The relations and actions of some activists, medical practitioners, and commercial bodies involved in Lyme disease advocacy pose a threat to public health.

It's the same crap every time. These guys are actually becoming comically misinformed and corrupt. It would be really funny if people weren't dying because of their greed and incompetence...
