had lyme couple years ago . wasn’t fun but two months of antibiotics and good as gold again.

Borrelia burgdorferi (the pathogen that causes Lyme) was named after Willy Burgdorfer. Burgdorfer claimed that the disease was the result of a biological weapons program that went awry. This is an interesting read: https://www.amazon.com/Bitten-History-Disease-Biological-Wea...

If you're interested in the intersection between Lyme disease and investigations into it being a bioweapons program gone wrong there's a recent book on the subject.

I haven't read it, but I heard an interview with the author and the book sounds well researched. It doesn't reach a definitive conclusion that Lyme came from a bioweapons program gone wrong, but it does talk about other bioweapons programs similar to Lyme.

This new book, Bitten, describes some of the mystery surrounding the origins of the disease in the US in the 1960s. https://www.amazon.com/Bitten-History-Disease-Biological-Wea...
