Join the Tufts Lyme Initiative
An estimated 400,000 people in the U.S. get Lyme disease every year. Of this group, up to 20% may have prolonged symptoms significantly affecting their life. Lyme disease costs the U.S. economy $1.3 billion dollars per year in direct healthcare costs and up to $5 billion per year in associated costs.
Help the Tufts Lyme Initiative in its goal of ending Lyme disease as a rising human health threat by the year 2030. A donation will help with expanding care options for patients, supporting our research and help us to provide education in Lyme disease prevention.
