LymeTV

Adina Bercowicz , Founder/Executive Director of  LymeTV  talks to us about Tick-borne disease awareness which is key for reducing incidence of disease, especially now as more people are spending extra time outdoors for fresh air during isolation

While applying to graduate school for a Masters in Nonprofit Leadership, Adina got very sick & was diagnosed with late-stage Neurological Lyme disease, multiple co-infections &, then later, brain damage & secondary diseases from a tick bite.  Frustrated with the lack of scientific knowledge in the medical community about tick-borne diseases & proper treatments, she resolved to easily bring the information to the public to reduce the incidence of these diseases, one person & doctor at a time.  Adina has made it her duty to research & inform.  Her dedication to highlighting awareness birthed LymeTV.
