Pfizer just announced that its Lyme disease vaccine reduced the number of tick-borne infections by over 70% in a phase 3 trial.

Warning: GSK pulled a Lyme vaccine in 2002 despite studies showing it posed no serious safety risks.

Any new Lyme vaccine is going to be a huge target for antivaxxers.

@luckytran I AM SO THRILLED FOR THIS VACCINE!!!💉 sorry it’s been so long with having so many of my friends and family members get SUPER sick with this disease and worried sick about catching it myself that I will literally SCREAM AT THE ANTIVAXERS if they so much as peep at me with their nonsense (again sorry for the outburst 😹)
