Public Health Agency of Canada – inappropriate non-evidence supported guidelines for Lyme disease.
ByCanLyme May 25, 2018July 27, 2020
May 25th, 2018 The below is taken from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) website. It is a guideline for health professionals yet PHAC states they do not publish guidelines (when talking to patient groups). It does nothing for the several other serious diseases ticks transmit to humans and fails what we currently know…

Borrelia miyamotoi rash is breaking the myth that rashes caused by borreliosis (Lyme disease) must expand beyond 5 cm.
ByCanLyme May 14, 2018July 27, 2020
Canada has Borrelia miyamotoi and other borrelia from coast to coast. The standard guidelines imposed on doctors state myths about rashes that science has shown us are not correct… The guidelines state that 60-80% of people will get a rash, NOT TRUE Only a small subset of the borrelia bacteria will cause any rash. Rashes…

Does single dose prophylaxis promoted by Canadian medical authorities work? The answer is no.
ByCanLyme April 13, 2018July 27, 2020
A two pill (single dose) prophylactic administration of doxycycline is being offered to Canadians who have a known tick attachment, in spite of the fact that experts warn it is ineffective in the majority of cases. It is a dangerous practice and may drive antibiotic resistance within the many microbes that make up the human…

ByCanLyme April 13, 2018July 27, 2020
[CanLyme Note: The Lyme disease disaster for Canadians is an excellent example of how the ‘self-regulating’ medical colleges and medical associations have woven themselves into the publicly funded health care system positioning themselves as the only experts, and policing any physicians who disagree with them, out of business.
