I have IHC for Borrelia burgdorferi, but I have never seen a positive
human case.  I have obtained positive staining in animal tissue and,
obviously, our positive control tissue (lung injected with B.
burgdorferi).

Will a warthin starry diagnose lyme disease?  Is there an IHC stain
that will stain for this?
