    The gold-digging conspiracy con artists are on the march with a brand new grift - this time, it's government-created Lyme disease. Same pattern we've seen with anti-vaxxers, and it's already gaining traction as a request for a U.S. Congressional investigation.

    In all fairness, there is evidence that the U.S. military was working on weaponizing tick-borne diseases, just not Borrelia spirochaetes.

    The article provides a helpful, point-by-point refutation, though it's not likely to help those who've already succumbed to the narrative.
