@af_iowa This will be an interesting debate question with @ZachLahn, so Iโm trying to understand this. The foreigner is in our illegal and taking a job from an Iowan. Iโm trying to understand how that is right? #iowansfirst ๐บ๐ธ

๐ Closing Out Lyme Disease Awareness Month ๐
As Lyme Disease Awareness Month comes to an end, one truth remains:
We still donโt know how many people truly have Lyme disease.
Millions of people have been affected by Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses, yet underreporting, inaccurate testing, misdiagnosis, and a lack of comprehensive surveillance mean the true number remains unknown.
Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a story.
This month, we honored patients, caregivers, researchers, clinicians, advocates, and organizations working tirelessly to improve awareness, diagnostics, treatments, and support. But our work is far from over.
At LivLyme Foundation, we remain committed to:
โ Supporting children and families impacted by Lyme disease
โ Advancing research and innovation
โ Improving education and awareness
โ Advocating for better diagnostics and patient care
โ Amplifying the voices of the Lyme community
Thank you to everyone who shared their stories, supported our mission, and helped shine a light on this often invisible illness.
Lyme Disease Awareness Month may be ending, but Lyme disease doesnโt end on May 31. Neither does our commitment to patients, research, education, and advocacy.
Together, we can change the future of Lyme disease.

Dr. Haridopolos, Director of National Health Communications for @Surgeon_General, lays out the scope of Americaโs tick and Lyme disease problem โฌ๏ธ
โ31 million people get bit by ticks per year in the United States.โ
โNot all of them get Lyme disease but we know [at least] half a million do.โ
โ20% of those who get Lyme disease go onto chronic, persistent Lyme disease that has autoimmune dysfunction and inflammation in their body that can take years to rectify.โ
Honored to have just received the endorsement of my longtime friend Charlie Kirkโs Turning Point Action.
Charlie and I first became friends when he was just 17 years old.
Much of our campaign is centered around the issues he and I both cared about for a very long time.
We have the momentum to win this race June 2nd. Grateful for their support to put IOWA FIRST.
