Excerpt from The Martha\'s Vineyard Times.  "Dr. Cameron maintains a practice
in Mt. Kisco, N.Y., and has been a pioneer in Lyme disease as an author of
practice guidelines, analytic reviews, and clinical trials. He is widely
recognized for conducting epidemiologic research while practicing medicine, and
for the past 12 years has frequently made scientific presentations at
conferences on Lyme disease."
Excerpt from The Martha\'s Vineyard Times.
Thank you to the Times for bringing attention to what is currently happening in
the area of tick borne disease. These illnesses know no limitations, it doesn't
matter who you are, what your background is, where you come from or what kind of
lifestyle you live, everyone is at risk. It is as simple as walking out into
your backyard to be putting yourself into a position where you could be
compromising your health. The Martha's Vineyard Lyme Disease Association, Inc.
is being launched in conjunction with the events this week surrounding the
screenings of the film Under Our Skin. MVLDA is proud to be bringing Dr.
Cameron, the current President of the International Lyme and Associated Disease
Society, along with Dr. Raxlen, who is seen in the film to the Vineyard. Both
physicians will be making appearances at the Chilmark film venue on Wednesday
evening and in Edgartown at a special presentation in the Whaling Church on
Thursday. This is a unique opportunity for people to ask questions and talk with
these two doctors who have years of experience and vast knowledge about treating
tick borne disease. This is the first of what will be many events sponsored by
the Lyme association which will be working on a year round basis to bring
education, prevention strategies and support research efforts here on the
island. For more information on the Martha's Vineyard Lyme Disease Association
please visit the website www.marthasvineyardlyme.org. We hope to be partnering
with the media, physicians, our new hospital, schools and others to maintain the
level of awareness these diseases deserve so that we can become a community that
can say we're doing everything we can to keep us safe from even one more person
contracting a tick borne illness on Martha's Vineyard.
