Public Health Sudbury and Districts has already tested a few that are tested positive for Lyme Disease, which can cause flu-like symptoms soon after being bitten. Unfortunately for people with Lyme disease, the blood tests used to diagnose the disease aren't always accurate, she said. "I think really that's the push right now, to try to get some research into using a better test." She's also pushing to get the message about Lyme disease treatment out to the public. "And so there needs to be a change in terms of how Lyme disease is treated."
