Introduced Siberian Chipmunks Contribute More to Lyme Borreliosis Risk

The Lyme disease ecological plot thickens: French researchers report that "Introduced Siberian Chipmunks Contribute More to Lyme Borreliosis Risk than Native Reservoir Rodents." The presence of chipmunks not only contributed to a higher number of Lyme borrelia genotypes, they "produced nearly 8.5 times more infected questing nymphs than voles and mice." Yikes!
