A new study published in the Journal of Investigative Medicine suggests the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi â the cause of Lyme disease â may be a contagious illness, sexually transmitted between partners.
Lyme disease is caused by spiral-shaped bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi (found in the U.S.) and Borrelia afzelii (found in Europe). Two different species of ticks, Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes pacificus, transmit the bacteria to humans via bites.ome ticks carried by deer transmit the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Lyme disease is not contagious from person to person. Lyme disease can affect many areas of the body including the heart, skin, joints, and nervous system.
