Milford, Conn. (WTNH) - A new test will help diagnose Lyme Disease earlier, leading to more
effective treatment. As warm weather approaches so does the season of ticks and Lyme Disease.
Infected deer ticks are the culprits. "This is a definitive molecular diagnosis of Lyme Disease,"
explained Dr. Sin Hang Lee, Milford Hospital. It took a year and a half in the research lab at
Milford Hospital for Dr. Lee to develop a definitive way to diagnose Lyme Disease using the DNA of the Lyme...

Thanks All. Good work.
You would think if silver attaches to outer surface protein 31kDa as demonstrated in my test and other
lab experiments-they could attach a scanning isotope to it, send it in and lite it up like a
Christmas tree if they are there. I'm just frustrated.

It might help the Africans who are being subjected
to Trials of the new Malaria vaccine and the new
HIV vaccine. To test them before giving them
something they don't know what it can possibly do
to them. They did not test it on borrelia lab
studies. But they are already starting some of the trials so

More info-but I find it hard to believe anyone when they make a statement about "False Positives"
