Colorado Tick-Borne Disease Awareness Association is Hosting Film Screening and Community Conversation: The Quiet Epidemic
Join us for a film screening and community conversation about the award-winning documentary The Quiet Epidemic. The film features a young girl from Brooklyn and a scientist from Duke University both diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease, a disease said to not exist. What begins as a patient story evolves into an investigation into the history of Lyme disease, dating back to its discovery in 1975. A paper trail of suppressed scientific research and buried documents reveal why tick-borne diseases have been allowed to quietly spread around the globe.
Subject matter experts will lead a community conversation/Q & A following the film screening.

A resource table will be available with education and prevention information from COTBDAA, as well as Community Partners: InsectShield, Sawyer, IGeneX, Ravel Heath & Soul Tribe Yoga Collective
