Medical Literature

Quote:

"With the pathogenesis of Lyme disease still unclear, the truth is that mainstream experts have imposed a rigid template on an entity they don't fully understand. Because their studies flow from the disease definition, rather than the other way around, they have generated information about a 'disease model,' but not the disease itself." - Pamela Weintraub, Cure Unknown, p. 339

The first center in the United States dedicated to the research of chronic Lyme disease is at Columbia University.

LYME DISEASE RESEARCH & SCIENCE

"The unfortunate fact of Lyme disease is that more than twenty years later medical science has not developed any significant breakthroughs in either diagnosis of or the treatment of this disease. Despite all of what we have learned about Borrelia burgdorferi, our diagnostic tests are still poor, and our treatment regimens are for the most part unchanged for the last two decades." (Tom Grier, What Lyme Disease Research Needs To Be Done And Why.)
