Summer Bugs

And Weather

On Wednesday, May 30, at 8 pm Charter Communications CommuniTyVision 21 will present a Summer Health Discussion, on the public affairs show HomeFront Live! Summer is a very exciting time of year, but with the threat of Lyme disease, the West Nile virus, and skin cancer, it can be a very scary time as well.

How big is the threat of these diseases, and how likely are we to be affected by them? How damaging are the sun’s rays and is the potential threat going to get worse?

The panel of experts will includes Gale E. Ridge-O’Conner, entomologist, Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station; Thomas E. Forschner, executive director and co-founder, Lyme Disease Foundation; Gary Lessor, assistant director, Western Connecticut State University Weather Center.

HomeFront Live! is a non-commercial, public affairs community service of Charter Communications and provides an opportunity for subscribers to call and participate in live, interactive television. Phone numbers will be provided during the show and viewers are invited to call in with questions, comments, or opinions, live on the air!
