Information session for upcoming Lyme fly-in is January 22

I was honored to speak at the “What’s NEXT” Lyme forum, hosted by Congressman Chris Gibson at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York on May 21, 2012. It was a fabulous event and included some terrific presentations. My presentation (which is now posted on our website) highlighted the results of our 2009 survey of over 4,000 patients with chronic Lyme Disease that was published in Health Policy last year. In it, I point out the serious personal and economic consequences of the failed policies of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)—policies that have resulted in both an alarming crisis of compassion and an intolerable level of fiscal irresponsibility.
