Quotes

"There have been some scratches and nips but no unprovoked attacks that we know of" McCown said. "We want to keep it that way."
"Anywhere the water is not moving as quickly, mosquitoes gather," Bricault said. "If the water is flowing, their survivability it goes down."
...Dickman. "Yield is the watchword of every farmer and our partners at DAK Renewable Research are the perfect facilitators to bring this all together."
"The Lyme Disease Rally," Makris stated, "has a lineup of doctors, lawyers, authors and advocates speaking out to usher in Lyme disease awareness, better doctor education, improved diagnostics and to urge the government to expand prevention measures as well as initiate more thorough medical insurance coverage regarding this surging epidemic, which has now surpassed HIV as fastest spreading infectious illness in USA. All states contain Lyme infected ticks. All varieties of ticks can carry the bacteria. The CDC labeled it as a short-term infectious illness in late 1970s. We have learned the hard way- 35 years later - that if not diagnosed and treated promptly and aggressively in the early weeks of a new infection, Lyme disease can cause life altering illness and damage to the body and mind.”"
