Special screening: "The Red Ring" - A journey into the heart of Lyme disease

'The Red Ring' is a thought-provoking and enlightening documentary that explores the heart of a global health problem - chronic Lyme disease - by following the personal odyssey of the filmmaker, Joonas Berghäll. Suffering from chronic Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses, Berghäll sets out on a mission to find a cure for his own debilitating condition and expose the reasons behind the widespread inaction and apathy towards this rapidly growing epidemic.

Berghäll travels across continents and meets patients who share their poignant experiences with Lyme disease, alongside front-line doctors, researchers who delve into the complexity of the bacteria and experts who discuss socio-political and economic barriers to effectively tackling the disease.

The documentary shines a light on the profound impact of Lyme disease on individuals, showing the real and often overlooked physiological and psychological consequences. Through personal interviews and compelling stories, "The Red Ring" confronts the scepticism and denial faced by many patients.

The film asks important questions about why Lyme disease does not get the attention it deserves, despite compelling scientific evidence and widespread suffering. Topics such as insufficient funding for research, controversies over diagnosis and treatment and the influence of the pharmaceutical and insurance industries are explored.

'The Red Ring' is not just another film; it is a call to action, urging us to recognise Lyme disease as a major global health problem and to question why sufficient support and solutions for millions of sufferers worldwide are lacking.

Watch the film, share it, talk about it. Let's bring Lyme disease out of the shadows.

As the concerning global Lyme & co-infections epidemic progresses, we hope that science will progress too and finally unravel the truth on chronic Lyme and so help patients to get the acknowledgment and help they need and deserve.

Destroying the Village in Order to Save It: Collateral Damage in the Battle Over Lyme Disease Debate over the concept of “chronic” Lyme disease has contributed to policies that exclude patients from specialist care. Many, if not most, of these patients e
