>>1562127>And no, it wasn't discovered in the 70s, that's just when they managed to identify the causative agent of the disease.You know what I meant, you argumentative cunt. Discovering symptoms of it doesn't count as identifying the disease itself. And that means jack shit.
Even the fucking US name for it, Lyme, stems from the epidemic in the town of Lyme.
Fact is, when an epidemic starts right next to a bio-weapons research facility, it might just be a coincidence, someone might have fucked up the containment procedures, or the least likely option, someone knowingly spread it to research its potential as a weapon.
Whichever it is, Congress will probably find out.
