Tick Tally Reveals Lyme Disease Risk
http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2012/02 ... sease-risk

Human Risk of Infection with Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme Disease Agent, in Eastern United States
http://www.ajtmh.org/content/86/2/320.full

Unfortunately, the above study doesn't appear to address the Western US and the distribution of the western blacklegged tick (Ixodes pacificus) which can also cause Lyme.

I found this article and thought I'd post here. Haven't heard anymore about Lyme being sexually transmitted even though this article was published in 2001.
