On December 18 last year, Donald Trump signed into law an order to “review and report on biological weapons experiments on and in relation to ticks [and] tick-borne diseases.” The investigation is long overdue but even so, the facts it uncovers will come as a shock to many.

From Melinda Elliott Sander, Missouri Lyme Alliance

Good evening everyone,

After speaking with extended family members, I am so sad to confirm that Dr. Charles Crist did pass away this morning. Please keep his wife, children, extended family and staff in your prayers. It is my understanding this was very unexpected.

This is a profound loss for the Lyme community in the state of Missouri and across the US. We were very fortunate to have such a brilliant physician right here in mid-Missouri.

His dedication to healing patients with Lyme and co-infections gave a countless number of individuals hope, healing and a future.

Below are two provider search avenues for those needing immediate care:

Project Lyme - https://projectlyme.org/providers-landing/

ILADS - https://www.ilads.org/patient-care/provider-search/

Additionally, there are numerous integrative and functional leaning physicians in our state who see Lyme patients. Please share those contacts in the comments.

Again, please keep Dr. Crist’s family and staff in your prayers.
