There is still time to be a part of the "We Are The 300,000" Lyme Media Campaign. The deadline is December 1st. Please consider posting a picture and remember you can always cover your face with a sign if you choose. Thanks so much for your help.
The "We Are The 300,000" LYME MEDIA CAMPAIGN
The Lyme community is launching a photo campaign to get more media attention for Lyme.
Our goal is to raise awareness about how the CDC and HMOs are ignoring Lyme.
We have already started to achieve this goal. Actor/producer/painter JOHN LURIE has agreed to promote the campaign on the Huffington Post. Another prominent actress just agreed to add her photo and lend her voice to the campaign (we'll be announcing who it is soon). And news anchor BROOKE LANDAU who was on the Dr. Phil Show about Lyme has agreed to add her photo. We're in discussion with more celebrities as well.
We're asking people to take a photo of themselves holding a sign saying, "I am one of the 300,000 plus annual Lyme patients being ignored by the CDC and HMOs."
For detailed instructions: http://lyme300000.wordpress.com/
Please email your photos to: lyme300000@yahoo.com
Examples of photos: http://www.flickr.com/groups/lyme300000
We will also develop the photos and send them to 4 major news outlets.
DEADLINE
Photos need to be sent in by NOVEMBER 1ST.
