I always find this to be a powerful stat. "1 out of 100 kids is autistic" "1 out of 8 americans is fighting hunger." I'd like to use this stat to get people's attention
Does anyone know the stat about lyme?
I'd even settle for the stat for NJ or the northeast. Tried to search online, but couldn't turn up anything
thanks all!

I love games. Can we guess? What time period are we talkin bout?
Some states have Autism rates as high as 1 in 5.
I will guess over the next 10 years at least 1 in 5
will have experienced some form of Lyme disease.
Why? Because the more they look-studies done at
prevalence of ticks infected with borrelia's the
more they find. Some higher than 70%.
Soon monkey no look will not be able to keep his eyes closed. What say you?

It's hard to tell, since Lyme can present as 320 medical conditions. Also tests don't necessarily show it, and people don't know they have it. I think it's a guess at this point. I think millions are symptomatic.

Your right but I know a lot of people who aren't
going to stop shouting till they are 6ft.under.
So at least some of those will know too. LOL
