I asked that question because I read somewhere that blood testing can sometimes yield false results whereby people are diagnosed as having Lyme disease when actually they are carrying the antibodies to the disease. In that context, I am wondering if blood testing sometimes gives false indications of the prevalence of the disease. I ask for clarity on that question. Is it a notifiable disease?
