Dr Jones the mistakes so far

Well, for one thing, it appears that Eugene Shapiro was NOT the source
of the complaint.

But many people still continue to rail against him.

In fact, it is proposed that Shapiro will sit on the panel deciding Dr
Jones' fate.

So the notion of sending hate mail to Shapiro, well, that might not be
the best idea? Never really a great idea to piss off the judge hearing
the case!

Next, someone advised contacting all reporters and media with the
story.

Whoops! That idea wasn't "approved at the highest levels" (whatever
that means).

Same person advised sending emails to the Ct Medical Board.

Whoops! That idea wasn't "approved at the highest levels" whatever that
means!

Dr Jones' letter, seems to indicate that the problem is that he began
prescribing antibiotics before ever seeing and examining the kids in
another state. It isn't clear if the charges involve his practicing
medicine in a State where he isn't licensed? (I don't know if he is
licensed in Utah?) or for not having conducted a physical exam? Or not
having properly documented this? or prescribing and diagnosing with
inadequate basis? Or all the facts--was it a doctor in Utah who
complained? The kid's parents (perhaps they had complications or were
later found not to have Lyme?) was Dr Jones working with a local doctor
out there and consulting (which probably would have been the way to go)
or what?

I think we need to know the facts here.

And I think we need to let Dr Jones and his legal team direct this NOT
a bunch of Lyme "activists" whose track record has been to consistently
screw things up and make things worse and who run around like chickens
without their freaking heads.

That is, IF you care about Dr Jones and really want to help him! And
the kids he has helped!

Make sure you only send information to his lawyers NOT to whoever the
Lyme "activists"
say.

Be careful. A thoughtful concerted approach is called for. Not a bunch
of ignorant self righteous ninnies scurrying about.

Just a word or two to the wise!
