thread_title:  External links modified 

message: This article does not mention COVID even once, despite being a major event in which IDSA produced guidance and evidence reviews. It seems to me that this article could be expanded to include more topics. 23:06, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

message: I have reverted disruptive edits by WP:SPA
@OlaLj. All of the edits are attempts to legitimize pseudoscience and conspiracy theories related to so-called chronic Lyme disease. The edits are contrary to the scientific consensus, are WP:FRINGE, and fail to conform to WP:MEDRS. According to the consensus of German experts, "In terms of the pathophysiology of presumptive “chronic Lyme disease” or “chronic Lyme neuroborreliosis”, current systematic reviews have not found a scientific basis for the assumption of a persistent latent infection caused by Borrelia burgdorferi or its morphological variants." Bloomberg has investigated the influence of billionaires Steven and Alexandra Cohen, who are not reliable medical sources. Likewise, it is well-known that ILADS is a major fringe source. LymeDisease.org is also known as a source of inaccurate information. ScienceFlyer (talk) 02:37, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Neither of the documents hosted on the HHS web site was authored by HHS. The report of the Tick-borne disease working group clearly states "Information and opinions in this report do not necessarily reflect the opinions of each member of the Working Group, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or any other component of the federal government". Also, Bloomberg reported, "The [working] group is populated by activists who oppose the primacy of evidence-based treatments, according to current and former members, and its reports to Congress include their rebuttals alongside scientific findings." The "health plus" report was authored by a digital design agency hired by a project of pseudoscience group Steven and Alexandra Cohen Foundation. The bit about the ICD codes is nonsensical and not supported by any source whatsoever. You have not posted a single reliable source regarding Lyme disease or the Infectious Diseases Society of America ScienceFlyer (talk) 23:44, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fringe edits 

message: Is there a better way to present the publications? Currently it's in the format <link to publication on wiki> <external link to publication>. Also if anyone's interested in contributing or commenting, I'm drafting my first Wikipedia article Open Forum Infectious Diseases, since no article exists for it currently. 21:45, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
