Review of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence in UK guidelines for Lyme disease

PHAC regularly abuses its legislated privilege and AMMI continually…

Chronic treatable active infection does exist, is devastating, and requires long-term antibiotics just as many diseases do. The Public Health Agency of…

ByCanLyme August 1, 2019July 27, 2020
[CanLyme Note: As usual, infectious disease doctors are intentionally misleading the public. It is very clear from this reporting that the rash is the most important sign of Lyme disease. It is not, just as facial palsy is not common. This is far too serious a disease for misinformation and it is frightening to see it…
