Here is some important information about Persistent Lyme Disease (PLD): https://t.co/XEIzfXkiru #Lyme #PersistentLyme @ilads_lyme @IDSAInfo @HHSGov #TBDWG @Lyme_X @CDC_NCEZID @CDCgov @CAPublicHealth @#TickAct @lyme_action #ticks

We are using the term Persistent Lyme Disease (PLD). Of course many patients with persistent symptoms also have undiagnosed co-infections but evidence shows that Borrelia often persists after standard antibiotic treatment. @ilads_lyme @ImmunoFever @cychiu98 @StanfordMed #ticks

The Kay Hagan Tick Act, passed in 2019, called for @HHS to develop a national strategy to address issues related to vector-borne diseases. The Lyme community fought hard for the passage of the #TICKact https://t.co/ST2YkZ1riY via @Lymenews 2/

The bacteria that cause #Lyme disease, Bb, have lots of tricks they use to evade clearance by the immune system. Here's a pic of the detectives on this case trying to understand these tricks and how to beat Bb at their own game @BalynZaro @PaigeSHansen @Sarah00Galloway

And that's a wrap for the #TBDWG11 I don't know about the rest of you but I've got a good feeling about this report to congress. With the passing of the #TICKact I think there is a good chance many of the proposed actions will be funded.
