Quote from above:

"Despite producing antibodies against B. burgdorferi, infected mice did not have elevated white blood cells compared with uninfected mice."

But, you can have Lyme without elevated WBC's!

I wonder how long they tested them after their being infected?

Aren't deer also unaffected by Bb sometimes???

[confused]

Oh, yeah . . .

" . . . you can have Lyme without elevated WBC's! . . ."

That's just part of what puts the "stealth" in "stealth infection."

There has been too many studies to say all this is true.
I say yes to the wbc and no on findings of no symptoms.
It may be naturally infected is much slower than injected infection but those studies prove otherwise.
So I really don't know whats up? Need to see where the money trail is....
