The presence of the corkscrew-shaped
Borrelia burgdorferi spirochetes in the former Lyme disease patient’s brain and spinal cord were evidence of a persistent infection.
The 69-year-old woman, who experienced progressively debilitating neurological symptoms throughout her illness, decided to donate her brain to Columbia University for the study of the disease as her condition worsened.
While she had first experienced the classic symptoms of Lyme disease 15 years prior and was treated accordingly after her diagnosis, she experienced continual neurological decline including a severe movement disorder and personality changes, and eventually succumbed to Lewy body dementia.
“These findings underscore how persistent these spirochetes can be in spite of multiple rounds of antibiotics targeting them.”
The bacteria that cause Lyme disease can survive in organ tissue after treatment with a full course of antibiotics months after infection, according to a new study with non-human primates.
The study results seem to support claims of lingering symptoms some patients who have received antibiotic treatment for the disease have reported.
Researchers at Tulane National Primate Research Center studied 10 primates exposed to ticks carrying
Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Four months after infection, half of the animals received the antibiotic doxycycline orally for 28 days at a proportional dose to that used in human patients.
Five animal subjects remained untreated and all were evaluated by more than five different diagnostic methods to characterize any remaining infection. Researchers used several important techniques, including xenodiagnoses, to determine if the bacteria persisted.
Tulane University researchers found the bacterium that causes Lyme disease in the brain tissue of a woman who had long suffered neurocognitive impairment after her diagnosis and treatment for the t

The study declares that volunteers in COVID vaccine clinical trials and people who receive the vaccine after clinical trials meaning now should be informed there is a risk of “more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated.”
