Thanks for posting.

I wondered if/when Alice Delong would publish this information. She was one of the presenters to the IDSA panel when they were deciding if changes should be made to the IDSA guidelines.

Incredible that they could ignore this significant evidence since the IDSA relies heavily on these studies to deny lyme treatment.

Perhaps this information will convince some that the studies should not be relied on but the IDSA has already made up it's mind and does not want to be confused with the facts!

Wow. This is really noteworthy. DeLong's argument is so solid.

Yes, we need more of this thinking. I hope this article leaves a mark on the IDSA for the world to view.
