I once saw a collection of rashes of a pediatrician treating over 10,000 children and many were without any bulls-eye and many were smooth, faint, and uniform. Here are some obvious lyme rashes hard to miss:

A researcher named Edlow, referenced below, mentioned an amazing thing. He mentioned animals were infected with Lyme disease. No rash. But when they were infected again, they did have a rash.
