In 2016, New York TV station Fox5 produced two comprehensive special reports about Lyme disease, entitled “Lyme and Reason: The cause and consequence of Lyme disease” and “Lyme & Reason 2.0: The Voices of Change.”
LymeDisease.org CEO Lorraine Johnson was interviewed for the second report, where she discusses the power of social media and technology to help change the national conversation about Lyme disease.
Only parts of her interview were included in Lyme & Reason 2.0. However, Fox5NY has generously made the uncut interview available to the public as well. Click below to view.
Watch both special reports here:
