Der er desværre rigtig mange sutdier, sepcielt fra udelandet, der er uenige i disse Danske observationer. Bla. er en stor del af problemet også, at nogle kroppe slet ikke når at producere antistoffer. Men de tilfælde til side:

CDC - Testing er så upålidelig at diagnosen skal stilles klinisk, kun ved indberettelse skal man benytte testene.

" The CDC points out that there are problems with testing, and that a patient with Lyme disease may not be diag- nosed using these criteria. This has been confirmed in many studies. The first was a New York State Department of Health study conducted in 1996, which was reported to the CDC. Among the 1,535 patients studied, 81 percent of non- EM cases were not confirmed with the present two-tiered testing algorithms. In other words, the presently used two-tiered testing missed 81 percent of the Lyme cases, especially when the patient did not have a bull’s-eye rash."

The two-tiered testing system referer til Elisa, efterfulgt af Western Blot.

"a 2005 study at John’s Hopkins University, confirming the poor tivity of the ELISA. Working with early diagnosed Lyme disease patients from Pennsylvania and Maryland, the Hopkins scientists studied state-of-the-art blood and DNA tests (PCR testing) for Lyme and found serious flaws: Most tellingly, when the standard two-step method recommended by the CDC was used on patients with other laboratory evidence of Lyme disease, it was posi- tive between 45 percent and 77 percent of the time. As for the DNA tests, the Hopkins researchers reported that these rarely pick up otherwise confirmed Lyme disease at all."

Sådan nogle studier, er der rigtig mange af. Danmark er også godt klar over dette. Medstifteren af Just Eat satte på et tidspunkt et event på benene, hvor udelandske læger fik lov at præsentere den her kritisk for Danskerne.

Og så var der jo også Statens Serum Institut's daværende leder, der sagde at testing var upålidelig, men det er vist bare gået i glemmeren..
