Abstract

We identified human Borrelia miyamotoi infections in Slovenia in 2 of 337 adults with undifferentiated fever tested positive by metagenomic sequencing and PCR. Both patients reported recent local tick bites. The illness was mild and self-limited. Our findings underscore the need to consider this pathogen in evaluating fever after tick bite.
