lyme

A #vaccine for #LymeDisease could be on the horizon
If approved, shot would be first vaccine for #Lyme disease in nearly 3 decades
If regulatory agencies give the vaccine, dubbed #LB6V, the green light, it would help fend off Lyme disease in hikers, gardeners and others at risk for #tick bites.
LB6V is the first shot to make it this far on the path to approval since another vaccine was pulled from the market in 2002, in part because of low demand.

Doctors as Patients
(subtitled)

In this film, five medical doctors open up about living with #PAIS / #IACC conditions like ME, #longCOVID, and chronic #Lyme. [...] They speak candidly about their experiences with illness, what they were taught (or not taught) in medical school, and how that shaped their own treatment decisions—sometimes even leading to harm. They reflect on how becoming patients themselves radically changed their views on medicine, science, and what needs to change in healthcare. It’s raw, honest, and incredibly insightful—for medical professionals, researchers, politicians, and patients alike.
