The
reference to note is the Girschick reference showing intracellular
persistence of Bb inside synovial cells. Back in 1996 the ridiculous
debate of whether Bb could be intracellular was still raging on. The
nay-sayers stuck to their guns and ignored the mounting evidence. The
medical community ignored intracellular possibilities perhaps because
most intracellular diseases were either incurable, or difficult to
detect and treat. (Leprosy, TB, Malaria,
Toxoplasmosis, then add to this that Borrelia infections have the
motility of the Syphilis spirochete!) The medical experts at the time
treated Lyme dies like it was a simple sore throat and not for the
deadly pathogen it was. Two weeks of doxycycline was the recommended
treatment. Now exactly 20 years later our experts are just as
belligerent and blind. The treatment protocols are essentially
unchanged. How does this happen in Modern Medicine? Now the debate is
whether Borreliosis can cause Dementia. The evidence is overwhelming but
the response by our experts is the same as it was in 1903 when they
doubted that Syphilis could cause Dementia. That argument was settled in
1913 when brain pathology of Syphilis patients that developed Dementia
showed spirochetes in the brain. They showed both Cause and Effect.
