This is the story of my daughter Milly & Lyme Disease. There was no rash, no "summer flu", NHS blood tests negative. And she's been ill for a quarter of her life. theguardian.com/world/2025/s… Thanks @UKLyme @LymeResourceCtr for raising UK awareness. NHS must take this more seriously.

Nuestro arbolado de baja innovación y biodiversidad, nulo monitoreo y escasa resiliencia está basado mayormente en fresnos.
