This attack is centered on the American East Coast, but nobody should feel safe.

But according to the CDC, this “multisystem, multistage” illness is capable of inducing disorders including “chronic

To measure current levels of knowledge and awareness of Lyme disease in Kentucky residents, a survey was distributed to Microbiology and Honors Program students at Eastern Kentucky University, and its results were discussed.

On one side are academicians, pharmaceutical companies, and government agencies, who claim the disease is usually mild and virtually always easily cured. On the other side are chronic Lyme disease patients and their doctors, who say that infection may survive the standard four weeks of antibiotic treatment, and that its impact may be debilitating and difficult to treat.

FOCUS: YALE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE BICENTENNIAL close to home: A history of yale and Lyme Disease Shana Elbaum-Garfinkle Department of Molecular Biophysics & Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut Yale scientists played a pivotal role in the discovery of Lyme disease and are credited as the first to recognize, name, characterize, and treat the affliction. Today, Lyme disease is the most commonly reported vector-borne illness in the United States, affecting approximately 20,000 people each year, with the incidence having doubled in the past 10 years [1]. Lyme disease is the result of a bacterial infection transmitted to humans through the bite of an in - fected deer tick, which typically results in a skin rash at the site of attack. While most cases, when caught early, are easily treated by antibiotic therapy, delayed treatment can lead to se - rious systemic side effects involving the joints, heart, and central nervous system. Here we review Yale’s role in the discovery and initial characterization of Lyme disease and how those early discoveries are crucial to our current understanding of the disease.
