You knew that would catch my eye. You were right.

VERY good article! Very informative. Thank you for sharing it!

And to the rest of Hopkins and IDSA and CDC- there IS such a thing as CHRONIC Lyme disease, so BITE ME!

[Razz]

This is important re his research on TB. "In addition to drug combinations, they found that the length of treatment was important.

Among patients given a certain combination of drugs, the relapse rate was 62% for those treated for six months; 19% in those treated for one year, and 4% treated for two years. [4]"

THAT is what studies we need going for us. Not the old BS garbage the IDSA/CDC puts out there and wants us to swallow.
