๐ Closing Out Lyme Disease Awareness Month ๐
As Lyme Disease Awareness Month comes to an end, one truth remains:
We still donโt know how many people truly have Lyme disease.
Millions of people have been affected by Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses, yet underreporting, inaccurate testing, misdiagnosis, and a lack of comprehensive surveillance mean the true number remains unknown.
Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a story.
This month, we honored patients, caregivers, researchers, clinicians, advocates, and organizations working tirelessly to improve awareness, diagnostics, treatments, and support. But our work is far from over.
At LivLyme Foundation, we remain committed to:
โ
Supporting children and families impacted by Lyme disease
โ
Advancing research and innovation
โ
Improving education and awareness
โ
Advocating for better diagnostics and patient care
โ
Amplifying the voices of the Lyme community
Thank you to everyone who shared their stories, supported our mission, and helped shine a light on this often invisible illness.
Lyme Disease Awareness Month may be ending, but Lyme disease doesnโt end on May 31. Neither does our commitment to patients, research, education, and advocacy.
Together, we can change the future of Lyme disease.

Dr. Haridopolos, Director of National Health Communications for @Surgeon_General, lays out the scope of Americaโs tick and Lyme disease problem โฌ๏ธ
โ31 million people get bit by ticks per year in the United States.โ
โNot all of them get Lyme disease but we know [at least] half a million do.โ
โ20% of those who get Lyme disease go onto chronic, persistent Lyme disease that has autoimmune dysfunction and inflammation in their body that can take years to rectify.โ

Honored to have just received the endorsement of my longtime friend Charlie Kirkโs Turning Point Action.
Charlie and I first became friends when he was just 17 years old.
Much of our campaign is centered around the issues he and I both cared about for a very long time.
We have the momentum to win this race June 2nd. Grateful for their support to put IOWA FIRST.

RFK Jr. says HHS is working to find a cure for Alpha Gal.
The tick disease that can make you allergic to red meat for life.
โOne bite from a lone star tick, and you could have a lifetime allergy to red meat.โ
โ50% of the population of Marthaโs Vineyard now has alpha gal.โ
โWeโre also working on medicines that can prevent Alpha Gal and have the promise of actually curing it.โ
โOne of those medicines is almost ready.โ
โWeโre fast tracking it.โ
โWeโre doing the studies over the next two years to see if we can actually reverse this devastating disease.โ

This morning @RandyFeenstra released a negative TV ad on me.
This is 100% confirmation we are winning & can win June 2nd.
Iโm now investing more to Retire Randy.
Iowans-even if I havenโt been your first choice-this is our shot to defeat the establishment.

I visited The Chefโs Garden in Ohio to see firsthand how regenerative farming restores soil health, increases nutrient density, and produces healthier food for the American people.
Healthy soil grows healthy food, and healthy food nourishes healthy Americans. Regenerative agriculture represents the future of farming and a cornerstone of our mission to Make America Healthy Again.

Prevention, proper early diagnosis and the correct treatments are key before this disease goes chronic. #lymedisease #tickoff #AwarenessSavesLives ๐

Every year, hundreds of thousands of people are diagnosed with Lyme disease, yet funding and awareness still lag far behind many other major illnesses.
Behind every statistic is a child who missed school, a parent who lost time with family, or a patient searching for answers. We need more research, better diagnostics, improved treatments, and greater education to help change the future of tick-borne diseases. ๐๐
Awareness leads to action. Action leads to change.

May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, a time to recognize the growing impact of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses on American families and communities. Lyme disease now affects an estimated 476,000 Americans each year and remains one of the most common vector-borne diseases in the United States.
I recently wrote to the House Energy & Commerce Committee urging support for reauthorization of the Kay Hagan Tick Act to strengthen research, surveillance, early detection, treatment, and public awareness efforts related to tick-borne disease.
Thank you to Chairman @RepGuthrie, Ranking Member @FrankPallone, and the House Energy & Commerce Committee for advancing this important bipartisan legislation.
