Dear Stephen,
Do you think a person can get lyme from kissing someone with lyme?

Stephen’s response:
The spirochetes do tend to enter the saliva of the animals they infect, so . . . it is lust vs caution on this one.

How then does one not spread Lyme by kissing? Never touch another human or animal with a kiss?
Good question Yahana.. I have been wondering the same. It seems like there is no definitive answer so I guess this is the reason for Stephen’s answer. I am guessing that if you are doin treatment to get better that your partner should also be treating themselves? And what about sharing utensils? It’s scary to think how easy it could be to pass it ain’t if it is truly in our saliva.
