Historic hearings on Lyme Disease treatment -- many hot button issues involved.
Edited on Thu Jul-30-09 06:15 PM by kickysnana
Doctors right to diagnose and treat an emerging complicated disease (and get paid for it).
CDC NIH surveillance guidelines being used as treatment guidelines.
The weight of research done in the last 17 years and influences by big pharma, insurance companies and Lyme Disease one of 35 possible bio weapons.

This hearing was ordered after Infectious Disease Society of America lost a court case regarding their guidelines on Lyme Disease. The CT AG sued and won. The board was replaced and new guidelines were to be drafted after this "public" meeting with scheduled speakers.

IDSA HEARING: Follow the hearing and comment 8 a.m.-5 p.m. ET, July 30

Please recommend and I will update as more information comes in.
