They are starting Phase 2 trials claiming phase 1 was successful.
Please understand the Lyme vaccine that was pulled from the market after multiple law suits were filed, could be tweaked, make a come-back and be mandated for your two year old (or older children) and adults, and/or be pushed by your health care professional.
If you know anyone with Lyme (or who had it) who is planning on volunteering to be in the new vaccine Lyme trial- please don't let them!

The CDC and the IDSA refuse to believe chronic Lyme exists.
Testing is blatantly outdated and flawed. Treatment is non-existent and patients are ridiculed and left to suffer.
But somehow they have figured out a vaccine

I think part of the problem was that without an accurate test, one didn't know if they already had Lyme disease and the vaccine just added to it.
Also, that original vaccine Lymrix (?) involved 2 shots over two years and was very expensive , even then, for most people.
I don't think any of that has changed for any new vaccine they are dreaming up. I can't imagine anyone wanting to volunteer for the trial. Do they pay volunteers?
