"Health officials in Minnesota are warning about Lyme-infected tick bites that attack the heart and cause sudden cardiac death."
"The state recorded the first fatal case of what is called Lyme carditis last year, and another man recently reported the illness.."
I happened to be checking the site here while surfing the net at the same time and saw this article.

- Well, as impressed as I am with their finally taking this seriously, when they say:
" . . . “The heart will stop pumping blood and you pass out and that’s a sudden death,” Campbell told Fox 9. . . ." (end quote)
I passed out probably hundreds of time, likely at least a thousand over all the years doctors just told me nothing was wrong and I should just "get a life" and I did not have sudden death. Felt like it but I can just see someone now out and about with a friend who passes out and the friend thinks, "well, that's it, then." -

- Well, often not so sure. This is what was happening inside my brain - eleven seconds of the best example I've found and, apparently, this is what others seemed to have seen to have been so repelled by me:
