We talk to Mary Beth Pfeiffer author of: ‘Lyme: the first epidemic of climate change’ about why this disease has seemingly exploded over the last several years and most importantly what we as parents (and people) need to know. We look at who is most vulnerable (children), when and where we are at the greatest risk, why this has become so much more common, what the issues are with treatment and diagnosis and most importantly what we can do and what we need to be aware of when it comes to protecting ourselves and our children.
