For anyone attending tomorrow’s tick-borne webinar with Dr. Cole, Dr. Lindley, and Dr. Fynn — read Kris Newby’s Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons (Harper Wave, 2019) before or after.

Newby is a Stanford-affiliated science writer who got the deathbed interview with Willy Burgdorfer — the scientist Lyme is named for and the man who developed the modern test. He told her, on the record, that the tick-borne illness now called Lyme was the product of a US Army bioweapons program at Fort Detrick and Plum Island.

She has the documents. She has the names. She has Burgdorfer’s lab notebooks.

This is not a fringe book. It’s a journalistic reconstruction of how an engineered pathogen, a captured surveillance test, and a permanently confused diagnostic standard combined into a chronic-illness epidemic the institutions cannot afford to admit.

The same operating pattern as everything else we’ve watched. Different vector.

👍 Great recomendation

This week’s Wednesday tick broadcast was exceptional. Practical, important. Easy to understand, great depth. “Thanks guys”

Fyi/ I had a recurring 2 1/2” to 3” like a perfect circle (pink- inflamed look- my doctors ongoing did not know cause) random appearing through the decades of my life at least since my 30’s (I am ex scout leader where I lived in wooded environments) on inside of my elbow, one or other (never both/ weird huh?) but on left elbow mostly.

I used to have burning eyes a lot, among other things which I attributed to me being weak in constitution or just working too hard with my work and responsibilities as dad and husband.

When I started ivermectin in 2021 proactively (take today, ongoing) 1 or 2 a week (.2mg/kg low level high quality source only- through one of the IMA docs) it disappeared, has not come back. (My body is “bigger than me to understand”).

My energy is back (big time, whatever??) I’m 73 now, and also my lifelong asthma also disappeared 3 or 4 years ago. I had asthma all the time- since 12 years old- inhalers I used. No more.

Thanks Independent Medical Alliance. May you grow in size, spreading your wings- your goodwill- your knowledge- your passion- your ethical embrace- to help folks all over this planet.

Training IMA doctors in medical school and beyond. Helping heal a fellow human being. That’s the best. You are like a fine cup of coffee early in the morning. I love it!

Thanks @tommywalkshills … you really do give us all a boost with your very kind comments.

I agree, it was such a good show, these three doctors are a powerhouse of knowledge and really know how to engage us.

Ivermectin, the one that shall not be named, such a powerhouse of a medication.

I wanted to share this from the post:

It’s Not Just Red Meat: How Wide the Net Gets

The obvious triggers are mammalian meats: beef, pork, lamb, venison, bison. But the alpha-gal molecule is present in any product derived from those animals, and the list is longer than most people expect:

Dairy: milk, cheese, butter, ice cream, yogurt

Gelatin products: gummies, marshmallows, broths, gel capsules in medications and supplements

Medications: porcine-derived heparin, cetuximab (a biologic used in colorectal and head/neck cancers), and certain vaccines containing gelatin stabilizers

Personal care products: tallow-based skincare, lanolin from wool (found in lotions, lip balms, and even some sweaters)

Other: supplements containing magnesium stearate, some alcohols filtered through gelatin, even cod roe and carrageenan (derived from red algae) in rare cases
