    We received an email from Penn State as follows.....

    Hello, In response to the growing concerns on ticks and tick-borne diseases in the commonwealth, Penn State Extension is developing a vector-borne disease team. To best serve you and different at-risk groups, we have launched a survey through Qualtrics to better understand the current knowledge the public has on ticks, tick-borne disease, and tick bite prevention and control. More information on the team and the survey can be found in the write up in Penn State News (https://news.psu.edu/story/583957/2019/08/16/impact/survey-aims-help-citizens-protect-themselves-vector-borne-illnesses). We are trying to get as wide a distribution as possible and to get responses from a range of demographics. If you have a moment, we would appreciate responses from you and members in your group and if you have any organizations that you work within Pennsylvania (professionally or personally), we would certainly appreciate your forwarding this to those groups. You can access the survey here (https://pennstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6EIeF1GjMb5uWTb). Please keep in mind this survey is limited to folks over 18 and those currently residing in Pennsylvania.
