IDSA Lyme Disease Review Hearing Presentations - Steve Phillips
It needs to be stated that more than a few of the authors of your posted article have ties with Biomed companies/Universities doing research for Lyme Vacines (Namely Eugene D. Shapiro, M.D., Allen C. Steere, M.D., Gary P. Wormser, M.D). Those same Drs. do NOT believe in chronic Lyme. If Chronic Lyme exists, the Lyme Vacines would not get approval when they are eventually brought to market.
Long term ABX therapy lasts much longer than the 2-3 months studied in the article you cited.
