A common myth about #LymeDisease is that serological tests work better after 3 weeks of infection because antibodies develop slowly. This is true for only about 15% of cases—those who have the HLAs needed to produce a strong & broad immune response.

Notice the date: 1990. CDC’s #LymeDisease group knew this when they manipulated the case definition a few years later. They implemented a diagnostic scheme that only IDs that minority of highly seropositive cases.

That means #LymeDisease tests are *only* very accurate (especially after a few weeks) if #Lyme = a genetic predisposition to a strong immune response against Borrelia antigens.

For the other ~85% of #LymeDisease victims, the diagnostic tests are almost entirely trash. But CDC & affiliated crooks maintain the scam by insisting the disease is defined by possession of specific genetic factors rather than presence of borrelia bacteria.

CDC & NIH officials owned patents both individually and with SmithKline, when this all happened. They needed to make SmithKline’s #LYMErix #LymeDisease vax look effective in trials. That was not possible without manipulating the case definition & diagnostics.

So, instead of developing tests that could diagnose *all* #LymeDisease cases, they narrowed the disease definition to include only the ~15% HLA-associated highly seropositive cases. Hardly anyone in the trial had breakthrough #Lyme infection, according to the tests!

#LYMErix was on the market from early 1999 to Jan. 2002. It was pulled not due to low demand, as claimed, but because of many injuries it caused & subsequent class action lawsuits. It was made with recombinant (manufactured) outer surface protein A (OspA).
#LymeDisease

OspA is a bacterial lipoprotein found on the outer surface of Borrelia bacteria. OspA & other similar Osps are the *cause* of #LymeDisease. So it’s psychotic to manufacture these lipoproteins & claim they are a vaccine.

People in #LymeDisease support groups who got the #LYMErix vaccine started complaining that they had #Lyme again. Which makes sense if you inject the very proteins that cause the disease when inoculated by tick. 🤷‍♀️ #duh

Even though #LYMErix got pulled, we were stuck with the bogus case definition that excludes the majority, and the sickest, of #LymeDisease cases. So, for the last 20 years, #Lyme victims have been gaslit in the name of covering up the (alleged) fraud at the root of this evil.
