Question 10812 — diseases

Summary

Ms. Marietta Karamanli draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the implementation of appropriate means aimed at combating Lyme disease and rapid and effective treatment of patients affected by this pathology. This infectious disease is caused by a bacteria (Borrelia) transmitted via a tick bite. This disease can affect various organs such as the skin, joints and nervous system. Its effects can be serious and disabling for those affected. It appears that there are various approaches to detecting the disease in possibly affected patients, detection by antibody tests or by a set of signs and symptoms (through a national diagnosis and care protocol). As it stands, many patients would not be identified early enough to benefit treatments limiting the appearance of later stages of the disease. She therefore asks him what initiatives have been taken by the ministry and health stakeholders to establish an effective strategy for prevention, fight against disease and patient care, particularly through better, broader and faster detection of the disease.
