The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) just requested from Open Eye Pictures copies of UNDER OUR SKIN to be be given to each of the nine Lyme guidelines review panelists. We're happy and humbled that the film is proving its potential to affect policy and people's lives. Click below for a summary of the historic IDSA Lyme evidence hearing held in Washington, DC last week. http://underourskin.com/blog/

Might I also suggest sending along a copy of Cure Unknown to each member?
I am a broke Lymie living on SSD and borrowed money, but I would be happy to pay for the nine copies.

fantastic but to be GIVEN vs. idsa paying for them
PJ LANGHOFF'S book, THE BAKER'S DOZEN..JUNK SCIENCE is completely about the IDSA and has over 1,000 links REFUTING what they say and have done in studies, etc.
PJ sent copies of her book to ALL on panel, and then i heard tina garcia said she gave them also, 2nd book EACH, on PJ'S BOOK!!
pam's book is good; pj's has much more substantial documentation in it and i'm just 50% done with pjs; just finished pam's last week.
kris, MAJOR STEP FORWARD! hugs/kisses
eve and i talked lately; she mentioned perhaps a REDUCTION IN COST for the sept. 09 version coming out to be sold at.

I have a positive take on it, as in it being more evidence submitted for panel review -

Kris, that is great news! But in going to the link you gave for the summary, I found it very difficult to read. Any way you could change the text or the background to make it sharp and readable? Thanks, Ann -OH

When I first read this I thought it was such a great sign, then I thought about Wormser. I sincerely hope it makes more of an impression on them than it did on him.
Can you believe the only thing he thinks they should change is to maybe add a little more about Babesia?
I pray that the panel members have the capacity to feel compassion or empathy, unlike Gary Wormser.
Perhaps they will be able to understand why Lyme Disease sufferers feel the way we do about their "esteemed" colleagues.
I'm still hopeful that it will have a positive impact. It truly is a very powerful film, IMO.
Thank you for sharing this info.
