US Govt Admits Lyme Disease a Bioweapon

The existence of the Lyme disease epidemic is officially covered up in

the UK, its myriad presentations routinely misdiagnosed as everything

from " M.E. " to MS to hypochondria. This is the first admission by a US

government body that the cause is an incapacitating biowar agent.

" SAN ANTONIO (AP) -

The $10.6 million Margaret Batts Tobin Laboratory Building will provide

a 22,000-square-foot facility to study such diseases as anthrax,

tularemia, cholera, lyme disease, desert valley fever and other

parasitic and fungal diseases.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified these

diseases as potential bioterrorism agents. " .

This is the first admission by a US government body that Lyme disease

is a biological warfare agent. This is the reason that hundreds of

thousands of men, women and children around the world have been left to

rot with wrong diagnoses, or have had their Lyme disease acknowledged

but been told that it is an " easily-treated " disease, given 3 weeks'

antibiotics, then told to shove off when their symptoms carried on

after that.

In Britain the existence of the epidemic is denied completely, and

virtually no effort made to warn or educate the public about the

dangers of ticks, which carry the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi.
