Not sure if it's been posted before, it's a long video (3hrs) about recognition of Lyme in Australia and has evidence from a doctor who treats Lyme and cfs as well as patient testimonies. Also has some tic researchers, as well as govt officials ducking and weaving questions. It appears that Australia probably doesn't have Lyme as recognised by other countries but it's own types of strains. The wording they use is Lyme type infections or tic Bourne infections. The tic researcher said that they found multiple bacteria in Australian tics that could cause infections. Many different animals carry these tics from kangaroos, wombats, dogs etc etc.
Dr schloeffel the doctor treating many Lyme and cfs patients stated that many neurological illnesses like atypical MS, Alzheimer's, cfs bla bla bla had high rates of tic Bourne infections, mycoplasma and Cpn. He states he is getting people well with abx and other treatments but because of the high cost of testing and treatment , that it is out of reach of many who are on disability etc. he seems to be pushing for testing in Australia and thinks it's ridiculous that Australians have to send blood overseas to Germany and America for testing when it should be available here. Evidence based medicine was brought up and dr S mentioned patients need to be treated individually as they don't fit into the evidence based medicine idea but also research is so poor that there is limited evidence anyway. He calls for the govt to treat patients individually until proper research shows they fit into evidence based medicine or else patients will just continue to suffer.
I'm sure I have missed something but it's worth a listen and I think this is probably a similar issue in many other countries too.
Cheers
