Thank you Personnelente for the link. This is grand news for those who live in where ticks lurk. Like the article says, if we can do it for our pets, why not for humans. Hugs. Scottie

my second cousin died from anaplasmosis which is a tick borne disease…wish this drug had already been approved for humans a few months ago.

I don’t like that your cousin died; I’m sorry for your loss. I wanted to clarify the star I clicked.

Hello Suze. I am so sorry. I do not have words to express how I grieve for your loss. But if I may take a small license about your situation … please forgive me if I am out of bounds and if you wish I will delete this … But I was thinking how new medication could save so many people including your second cousin but what if people on the right started their anti-medication / anti vaccine stuff about this new medication? They / major TV networks / some red state governors who completely deny science and medical data for completely political reasons begin a campaign against the medication. Even though we give the same kind of medication to our pets to save their lives, people turn against this life-saving medication, that has been shown to save lives. They then claim civil exemptions / religious exemptions to get the courts to prevent the medication from being used in all states it is needed?
Again I am sorry for using your loss, but if it makes even one anti-vaccine person, anyone that thinks they shouldn’t take the medication to save their lives, I just hope they see this.
Again Suze. I understand your wish and I am so sorry for your loss. I never had any real family, so I value those that do. Actually I am jealous of them. I wish I had the kinds of close relationships and family connections so many of my friends online talk about. My first memories were at 3 years old of a scary bus ride with a woman I did not really know taking me to my new family. That she was my new mother … adoptive mother … was something in my memory no one explained. All I knew was suddenly I was with people that hurt me and used me. But that is a different post. Thank you Suze. Again sorry this went so many ways sideways. Hugs. Scottie.
