Most people who develop Lyme disease, a tick-born infection that’s endemic in parts of the Northeast and Midwest, are easily cured by taking an antibiotic like doxycycline for a couple of weeks. But for years a debate has raged over what to do about patients whose symptoms (fatigue, mental confusion, joint pain) never seem to clear up. One small but vocal group of doctors and patient advocates believes that Lyme’s corkscrew-shaped spirochetes have tunneled deep into their victims’ bodies and can be eradicated only with intensive antibiotic treatment over many months. Another group believes, just as adamantly, that the bacteria are long gone, making further treatment with powerful antibiotics-- which can lead to potentially fatal infections or blood clots--positively dangerous.
Now comes word of two studies in the New England Journal of Medicine that show that long-term antibiotic treatment is no better than a placebo for folks with chronic Lyme disease.
A. even the patients doubt the antibiotic treatment
B. doxycyeline has been regarded as the most effective
C. doctors disagree as to the effect of strong antibiotics
D. moderate antibiotics are better than intensive ones

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a
restaurant in New York City when a young boy sat down at the next table.I
couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation.At one point,the woman
asked:"So, how have you been "And the boy —who could not have been more than
seven or eight years old—replied,"Frankly, I’ve been feeling a little depressed
lately." This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing.As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn’t find out we were"depressed"until we were in high school.
