Not that I trust: The Lymerix vaccine was such a FAILURE. It gave thousands of people Lyme, that caused irreparable damage. There are new species of borrelia that are being discovered each year. It is therefore impossible to vaccinate against at this time. Also, the associated co-infections ( which almost ALWAYS occurs), are often the primary cause of symptoms. The vaccine currently trialed doesn't address
