We have been fighting for decades to get help and from our medical field to pay attention! Now this...please listen to its entirety and pay attention to the symptoms of this new virus from China. We have so many more symptoms and weight, don't we also have the risk of getting Lyme disease from mosquitoes as well as ticks?

Be an advocate, and please stay involved and participate with the Lyme Association of Greater Kansas City! We need you!
