What is really going on? How does the COVID 19 pandemic impact people with Chronic Lyme? Should you be worried, how will this impact ongoing care, and how to cope with the panic...Dr. Darin Ingels shares his experiences. 

Key Takeaways:

 

The overwhelming majority of cases are in 3 states. 

 

Lockdown vs. shelter in place The media is focused on panic...however the mortality rate is still very low at 1.5%-1.7%.  If you get exposed you have a 98% chance of recovering. What do we do know to keep ourselves safe? Washing your hands reduces your risk by 50%! Lyme patients who are already boosting their immune systems could be at an advantage, over the general public. Horizontal vs. verticle patients, you can’t compare the two different types of patients. There is so much that you can do...eat an alkaline diet! Hydroxychloroquine is being used as a treatment for this virus. The mechanism behind it really alters cellular PH to become more alkaline. Since that is the case, eat an alkaline diet.  “Keep-Herb” it kills everything except people. Cats claw, artemisia, and garlic.  From all the patients who are battling life with a chronic illness “welcome to the party.” Inaccurate testing Don’t wait for a pandemic to be proactive with your health. HIPPA rules have been suspended allowing MD’s to practice telemedicine via online appointments.
