Just saw this:

The Mayo Clinic and CDC say they've found a "new" species of Borrelia that can cause Lyme in the northern midwestern US. And they named it after themselves - Borrelia mayonii.

A comment from a Lyme sufferer on Mayo's Facebook page indicates that there's much more going on beneath the surface, which does not surprise me.

By the way, I used to post frequently here under a name that was too similar to my real name for it to be "safe" to use anymore. Hello again to old friends.
