QUOTE (Mouse Model) “….we demonstrate that Borrelia targets the skin regardless of the route of inoculation, and can persist there at low densities that are difficult to detect via qPCR, but that were infective for blood-feeding ticks."

QUOTE- "Application of immunosuppressive dermocorticoids at 40 days post-infection (PI) significantly enhanced the Borrelia population size in the mouse skin.”

This means if an uninfected tick bites us we can give it Lyme disease. Revenge at last! I think? LOL
