#LymeDisease
The month of May is #LymeDiseaseAwarenessMonth
Every year lymediseasechallenge.org asks people to take pictures as they bite into a wedge of lime(yowza), known as the Take A Bite Out Of Lyme challenge. This year theres a new challenge to also bring attention to covid as well as Lyme —#FaceMaskSelfie
Due to the current COVID crisis, we are doing things a little differently this year. Our founder Melissa Ferwerda Bell shares her experience of how COVID-19 has impacted her as a Lyme patient.
We are asking our followers to post a #FaceMaskSelfie and share information such as:
How has the COVID-19 pandemic impacted you personally as a patient with Lyme?
How are Lyme disease and COVID-19 similar?
How are Lyme disease and COVID-19 different?
Have shelter in place requirements impacted your medical care for Lyme disease and tick-borne co-infections?
We will be posting graphics created by Jenny Lynn illustrating similarities, differences, and discussion points throughout the month, along with the latest news on Lyme and coronavirus.
Jenny Lelwica Buttaccio will continue to help behind the scenes and with our Instagram. If you have not done so already, be sure to follow us there! www.instagram.com/lymediseasechallenge/%3Cbr%20data-text=Please" originalText="https://www.instagram.com/lymediseasechallenge/
