Death plunge of the wealthy woman turned paranoid by a tick bite

Note the lack of detail at the bottom of the article. The "bull's eye" rash often does not occur,  or is on a part of the body where the victim cannot see it. There should be mention of the CDC just increasing the estimated number of annual cases in the US by a factor of 10, from 30,000 to 300,000. Lyme carditis (inflammation of the heart) and heart block (blocking of the signal from the brain to the heart telling it to beat) are also missing, even though there was recent wide-spread press coverage of three young people dying from Lyme carditis in the US within the last 10 months.  If you feel so inclined, please write to the publisher of The Daily Mail and kindly request more in-depth coverage of Lyme in the UK. I have recently been informed by a Lyme patient from the UK that there is essentially zero coverage of Lyme disease treatment by the National Health insurance program.  -Bob

A woman plunged to her death from her bedroom window after suffering paranoid delusions caused by a tick bite, an inquest heard.

Jan Linton, 56, was bitten when she stayed on a friend's nine-acre estate in France.

Within six months she was acting "very strangely" and claimed the police were "out to get her", Westminster Coroner's Court was told.
