Attn: ADM Brett P. Giroir, M.D., Assistant Secretary for Health

Dr. Giroir,

If and when you or a family member is treated for Lyme disease and after the short course of antibiotics are completed symptoms return with a vengeance, what will you do?

When that family member is bedridden with devastating fatigue and mental incapacity will you tell yourself it couldn’t be Lyme disease because treatment was adequate as dictated by the Infectious Diseases Society of America?

Public outcry is identifying a national health crisis as outlined in the 2018 Report to Congress so what is the current immediate action plan to address this crisis? https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/tbdwg-report-to-congress-2018.pdf

Where is the escalation process to develop direct detection methods and find new treatment approaches for a disease that is destroying lives, ending careers while leaving its victim in financial ruin?

When will our public health officials escalate Lyme disease to Highest Alert?

When will our public health officials recognize chronic relapsing seronegative Lyme disease? [1]

When will our public health officials announce Lyme disease is capable of death [2] and severe disability [3] as reported by the patient community for the past three decades and exposed in the documentary Under or Skin? [4]

When will our public health officials recognize that the current dogma dictated by the IDSA and American Lyme Disease Foundation has been established while focusing on the acute stage of disease with bulls-eye rash after early treatment? [5] (This does not represent the entire patient population!)

As Assistant Secretary for Health you are required to answer these questions not ignore them as you have all other inquiries.

I expect a prompt response to this inquiry Dr. Giroir.
