Anyway, I've seen 3 Lyme stories recently on internet news websites. Seems like it's all over the place right now. One was a main story on Yahoo's site for a day, sorry I wasn't able to post it. You could tell the doctor they interviewed was no member of the IDSA.
Here's a new story...

What I found very interesting was the part at the end of the article that mentions new legislation regarding Lyme Disease. Looks like we're getting support from friends in high places. Still need to look at the new legislation.

Interesting article and despite bogus CDC references, there were some logical quotes from a rheumy, no less (which were actually refuting the CDC info). I was not aware of this stat:
"Approximately 70 percent of deer ticks are infected, says Gaito."
Noooooo.... there's no lyme threat here.
