Peer-reviewed publication link
It should be illegal for news articles to report on articles without actually posting the publication link
Edit: pertinently, I’m not 100% sure that’s the same publication, as there doesn’t obviously even seem to be a journal with the title Microbiota (their citation)
Let’s be real here. Do we really need a vaccine for this? An estimated 200k people get this per year. It is almost never fatal. People can go years without even knowing or being diagnosed with Lyme disease.
I am not anti-vax, but A LOT of people clearly are. Maybe we should spend more time focusing on treatment or symptom reduction for those afflicted than vaccines and prevention for all people over non life threatening diseases.
Is your stance really to go all in on treatment over prevention?
Not for all ailments, but for this yes.
I recommend checking out the CDC information or numerous other studies on Lyme disease and taking your own position rather than blindly excepting a random article on social media as truth and the only acceptable opinion.
Detection and treatment of Lyme is notoriously difficult. Why would you not prefer a preventive solution?
Bc despite their claim, op is antivax. There’s no other explanation
Watching anti-science folks here get downvoted to oblivion feels good
