  6. Well I found out I have Lyme Disease an hour ago. Just what I wanted for summer. Made it almost 50 years of outdoor living avoiding it to get struck down now.

    Watch out for ticks everyone.

  7. 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.

  13. Finally, Some Good News in the Fight Against Lyme Disease

    Scientists found that the experimental vaccine was more than 70% effective at preventing Lyme disease in a trial of nearly 10,000 volunteers.

    When a Lyme-carrying tick slurps up blood from a vaccinated person, these anti-OspA antibodies are also ingested. And once inside the tick’s gut, the antibodies are intended to bind to the bacteria and prevent them, from leaving the tick at all, thus preventing infection.

    Based on the trial’s primary endpoint, the vaccine’s potential effectiveness ranged from 15.8% to 93.5%, which was below the 20% lower bound that the companies had set as a goal.

    Notably, in a separate analysis of the data, the vaccine did surpass the 20% lower range (the 95% confidence interval was between 21.7% and 93.9%).

    "CIA accused of secret bioweapon experiments linked to major outbreak in its own people

    A biochemist has claimed to have found evidence that the modern Lyme outbreak in the US could have been the result of CIA bioweapon experiments.

    Dr Robert Malone, who helped lay the groundwork for mRNA vaccine technology, made the explosive allegations this week after analyzing declassified government documents, historical records from Cold War biological weapons programs and scientific research on tick-borne diseases.

    Malone highlighted experiments in the 1960s that allegedly released more than 282,000 radioactive ticks in Virginia and open-air tick research at Plum Island, a federal laboratory located near the Connecticut community where Lyme disease was first identified."

  16. The #OpenSource #OpenInstructionSetArchitecture ( #RiscV ) WiFI Router live stream is now online at twitch.tv/ComfortComputer. This is also a fundraiser for a #lymedisease / #encephalitis test kit. You are welcome to come chat, puzzle, chill to Dungeon #Vaporwave, and support the community. :)

  17. I will be live streaming work on an #OpenSource #RiscV WiFi Router later today (I hope). The live stream will be on twitch.tv/ComfortComputer if you would like to get notifications when the stream goes live. I would prefer not using that particular platform, but I'm not sure if there are other platforms available (until our own is built :). There is also a fundraiser for a #lymedisease / #encephalitis test kit.

  18. I need #covid resources for a friend who has #LymeDisease & isn't masking 100% - articles about how covid affects Lyme patients would be especially useful. Help, please 🙏

    I tried searching for legit resources but search engines are wacky now. I was getting messed up results/RFK Jr anti-science stuff 👎

  25. #FoliageFriday

    Although I've always loved the beautiful foliage of #JapaneseBarberry shrubs, we've avoided adding any to our own gardens. They're highly invasive if not heavily controlled. Japanese barberry provides prime environments for #ticks to breed due to the high humidity in barberry's dense foliage. It's believed that spread of barberry is correlated with the spread of #LymeDisease.

    I really wish stores/nurseries that sell plants would inform customers on problematic ones so folks can make more informed decisions. Many uninformed customers often buy Japanese barberry shrubs because they're deer resistant & visually appealing. I suggest avoiding it. It's been banned for sale in some USA states.
    Just admire the shrubs in public cultivated gardens - don't grow them.

  30. So yeah. Someone here asked me for advice on something that they suspected was Lyme Disease, but was blown off as "poison ivy" by a physician. After looking at photos of what I recognized as a Lyme circle and asking about specific symptoms, I suggested they consult another physician and get a test. It turns out that Lyme was an issue. When in doubt, don't mess around! Physicians today are encouraged for quantity not quality and might miss symptoms! Advocate for your own health!

    #Tick risks vary by region. Here's where diseases have spread and how to stay safe

    June 23, 2025

    "There are early signs that it could be a bad year for tick bites. In May, the rate of people seeking emergency care for tick bites was the highest it's been since 2019, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    "If you get a tick bite, you're not alone: They happen in every U.S. state, and some 31 million people get tick bites each year.

    "Not every tick bite yields disease, since not every tick carries pathogens or bites long enough to transmit them. Still, most reported cases of vector-borne disease (including mosquitoes) come from ticks, which can carry pathogens with terrible consequences.

    "Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne disease in the U.S., estimated to affect more than 470,000 people each year.

    " 'But ticks can actually expose people in the U.S. to more than a dozen different disease-causing agents,' including #toxins, #allergens, #bacteria, #parasites and #viruses, says Alison Hinckley, an epidemiologist at the CDC's Division of Vector-Borne Diseases. 'The illnesses can range from mild to life-threatening,' Hinckley adds.

    "Here are facts to know about these biting critters and tips to stay safe.

    "Ticks are slow threats, so prompt action cuts your risk

    "With ticks — unlike mosquitoes with their one-and-done sting — there are generally multiple opportunities to reduce your risks. That's because most kinds of ticks need to crawl onto your body, latch into the skin and, in many cases, feed for a while — from several hours to several days — before they get you sick."
