Cuomo to ticks: Drop dead

Commentary: Here on the New York state level, the politicians are on top of the ticks. Lee and I just met with Senator Terry Gipson and discussed with him the dangers of tick-borne diseases. He gets it. Here is a picture of the 3 of us together. He is working on getting more funding for tick-borne research among other projects to help Dutchess County.
Congressman Chris Gibson, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Senator Chuck Schumer, Senator Terry Gipson (state) and Assemblywoman Didi Barrett (state) with the Governor are now among the growing numbers of politicians letting New Yorkers know about the dangers of Lyme and associated tick-borne diseases. Congratulations to our politicians that have heard the cries of the people suffering from Lyme and associated tick-borne illness.

Also in the news, Governor Andrew Cuomo has a few things to say to the ticks.
