Doors open at 6:45pm
After years of living with mysterious symptoms, a young girl from Brooklyn and a Duke University scientist are diagnosed with a disease said to not exist: Chronic Lyme disease. The Quiet Epidemic follows their search for answers, which lands them in the middle of a vicious medical debate. What begins as a patient story evolves into an investigation into the history of Lyme disease, dating back to its discovery in 1975. A paper trail of suppressed scientific research, and buried documents reveals why ticks — and the diseases they carry — have been allowed to quietly spread around the globe.
Featuring a discussion panel coordinated by the Nova Scotia Lyme Advocacy Group

“The Quiet Epidemic is masterful at exposing a conspiracy that, if taken seriously, would have/could have saved hundreds of thousands of lives.” –Film Threat
Director: Winslow Crane-Murdoch, Lindsay Keys
