In her book, “Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons,” Kris Newby reviews the circumstantial evidence suggesting the organism that causes Lyme disease may originally have been developed as a biological weapon.
An estimated 476,000 Americans are diagnosed with and treated for Lyme disease each year, and prevalence is rising.
Lyme disease is transmitted by ticks (and sometimes other biting insects) infected with the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. There are about two dozen species of B. burgdorferi with hundreds of strains worldwide, many of which are resistant to antibiotics.
Ticks can also carry other pathogens, and coinfections are another reason why Lyme disease is so difficult to treat.
A major challenge with Lyme disease is that its symptoms imitate so many other disorders, including multiple sclerosis, arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and even Alzheimer’s disease, making proper identification difficult and time-consuming.
