Linda’s comments: I have the utmost respect for Dr Brian Fallon, who is the Director of Columbia Lyme and Tick-Borne Diseases Research Center.

Excerpt:
Dr. Fallon proposed a five step approach to advance our understanding:
1) conduct a large prospective study of neurologic Lyme; 2) apply newly
developed technologies; 3) create a national repository of clinical
specimens; 4) conduct a noninferiority, double-blind, randomized,
controlled trial; and 5) test nonantimicrobial therapies.
