"This book is highly disturbing. Nazi pros were brought in by the US government to start a germ lab on plum island after WWII. It was staffed with veterinarians because they are not required to aspire to the same code of ethics as people doctors. Various diseases and disease hosts like tics etc. were brought in from Africa and other parts of the world to grow germs in animals/livestock so the US would be ready to wage biological/germ warfare against the communists. The place still exists and the author's case that the prevalence of lyme disease on the East Coast can be directly traced to escaped tics from lab experiments at lab 257. Who knows what else escaped. People working in this lab take several scalding showers a day and are de-germed before and after leaving. Lots of evidence here in the form of declassified docs etc. I was too freaked to continue reading."
"As someone who has lived a medical nightmare straight out of Michael Moore's Sicko this past year as a result of my Lyme Disease battle, I am finding this book immensely distressing.
Therefore, in order to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, I am taking a breather to read The Bell Jar, which is a Winnie The Pooh story in comparison."
"Having had Lyme Disease most of my life, I took particular interest in this topic for years. I am chronic as the result of suffering this disease for 25 years before a doctor would believe me enough to order the test. This book helped me to understand the reason why the medical community so adamantly opposed testing me. It infuriated me, but at least I can understand their ignorance now. This book will scare the hell out of you. If you read the lines, and between them, you'll realize there is much more going on behind the scenes even today."
