Ticks. Mosquitoes. Alligators. What purpose do they serve on earth?????

According to the article, as least one of these diseases can be spread via blood transfusion.

I fail to see WHY medical professionals don't realize that more than one illness can be present after a tick bite. Vets understand that.

The Lyme test done routinely on dogs tests for several of these diseases at once - a $35 test that takes five minutes.

I know a guy who nearly died from a tick borne disease. They didn’t recognize what it was in the hospital, and gave him a heavy duty antibiotic. When he finally started to improve, they figured out it was something he got from a tick, but they weren’t sure what.

Again, the nutrition doctors were way ahead of the game. I remember a doctor was a guest on the Atkins’ radio show and warned us about the spread of: Lyme, Babesiosis and Erlickiosis.
