Abstract | Blood samples and questionnaires from 950 Swiss orienteers revealed positive antibodies for Lyme borreliosis in 248 (26.1%) of subjects, compared to 3.9-6.0% in 2 control groups. Six months later a second blood sample from 755 participants showed that 45 had seroconverted from negative to positive. Although positive Lyme seriology was common, clinical disease occurred infrequently. (KS) |
