Description
The possible link between Borrelia burgdorferi and clinical disease, especially digital dermatitis in cattle, is questioned. The possibility of transmission by the urinary/oral conjunctival route or directly by urine contamination of the feet is challenged and the need to confirm that the ELISA system is not detecting antibodies to organisms other than B. burgdorferi is emphasized
