    In 1994 Axford found 24% of London park workers with raised antibodies for Lyme Disease using rather insensitive ELISA and yet general public still not aware of risks or preventative measures and local doctors are failing to pick up even the most obvious early cases - once an early case is missed it is far more difficult to diagnose or treat - patients are ignored and abused due to lack of knowledge about the emerging science over persistence of Borrelia infections.
