The suggestion was made that Lyme disease needed a celebrity spokesman to bring it to the public attention, such as Michael Fox did for Parkinson's. I do not disagree, but pointed out that Lyme disease is a political issue, particularly chronic Lyme disease and has had its publicity seekers to rally support.
If you spend some time googling it you can see the issues that go beyond just medical science. I was not trying to be obscure, I just get frustrated with everything being divisive and political, including discussions of scientific issues that are relatively clear cut.
