Peaceful Lyme Demonstration at the Chicago Pediatric Infectious Disease Conference

 


Jim Berger and Dave Marsh are organizing a peaceful protest to hand out literature at this year’s PREPID conference in Chicago at Swissotel Upper Wacker. This is the Pediatric Infectious Disease Conference, where Tick Borne Illness and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever will be discussed.

 We need Lyme Disease Patients to join us to come down to talk with doctors attending the event to hand out literature, answer questions, and explain how Tick Borne Illness has affected us and our loved ones. Families with Children are welcome and encouraged to attend as well!

We will be gathering on two dates:
 Tues. Aug. 18th and Friday Aug. 21st.
