Did the US military cause Lyme disease? Pentagon is urged to investigate whether ticks were developed as 'biological weapons' in the 1950s amid rise in debilitating disease

• A bill orders investigation into use of ticks for biological warfare experiments
• Pentagon officials must determine whether the ticks were released 
• Cases of Lyme disease in the US have more than doubled in the past 20 years 
• Celebrities who have battled the disease include Shania Twain and Ben Stiller
• The illness, caught from ticks bites, causes serious health problems if untreated

A bill passed in the House of Representatives by a vote last week has demanded a thorough investigation into the source of the illness.  
Pentagon officials will determine whether ticks and other insects were 'weaponised' and used in experiments by the Department of Defense between 1950 and 1975.
Politicians also demanded they reveal whether any ticks or insects used in such experiments were released outside of any laboratory either by accident or on purpose.
The number of reported cases of Lyme disease in the US has more than doubled since the mid-1990s, according to official figures. 
Lyme disease is uncommon but can have crippling and even deadly effects – it's most often spread by the bites of ticks. 
US celebrities including Shania Twain, Avril Lavigne, Ben Stiller, and Alec Baldwin have all spoken about debilitating symptoms they battled after contracting the disease in the past. 
Country music legend Shania Twain had to retrain her voice after she developed dysphonia - a condition affecting the muscles of the larynx - as a result of Lyme disease
Avril Lavigne revealed she spent five months bedridden as a result of Lyme disease in 2015
