Results A total of 140 serum samples were collected, 17 samples were positive of Lyme disease antibody, the total positive rate was 12.14%. Four serum samples were positive for Lyme disease IgM antibody, the positive rate was 2.86%, 13 serum samples were positive for Lyme disease IgG antibody, the positive rate was 9.29%. The total positive rate of antibody was higher in women than men, and the total positive rate of antibody was highest in 50- years old age group, there were no significant differences in total positive rate between different districts.
