Hi Steve,

Thanks for posting the link.

I went directly to the Heath Canada Website.

I see they have since removed the Public Health Notice for lyme.

2 days it managed to be out there to help people...

Sigh.

Although I do see that they are now accepting tick submissions from the general public, so that's a step in the right direction.

I wish the BCCDC would start accepting ticks from the general public as well.

2 days....

Greta,

It appears to be all here at that link Steve posted, maybe try to connect again? Ive not yet read it, just skimmed it, so can't speak to content but this should go through now:

Hmmm... Thanks Keebler!
I'll try again tomorrow morning.

[Smile]

And I got all excited-thought health Canada was finally doing more research on VBO, but then I read the fine print...
They don't accept ticks unless it was feeding on something. And I'm not about to stick a leg out.
So the passive black legged tick research they are doing has to come from a host of some type.
Bummer.

When posting a link, do not post any punctuation or other letters anywhere near it. (leave a space) That is why steve's link isn't working.

Took me awhile to learn that one!
