[Fwd: Immunization against Lyme Disease]

[Guest guest]

I felt it important to forward this article and the replies to my fellow

group members for several reasons, first of all because it is, of course

pertinent to us all, but secondly because of the misinformation included

in the article and because of who supplied the information.

Lyme disease not contagious?

Lyme disease treatable?

Lyme disease not fatal?

Partially true to all of the above, but not true enough not to get my

back up!

No wonder " our " problem is not being given the consideration it so

desperately deserves!

There has to be a way to insure that the public be sufficiently warned

that Lyme IS a communicable disease, only those lucky enough to be

treated immediately can, in fact, be helped, and that Lyme can be, and

has been FATAL.

Please forgive me, guys. The vaccine issue is a real sore one with

me...just reading that the test subjects were " carefully monitored " (or

however Steere put it) was enough to get my blood boiling!
