VACCINATION
Because of liability concerns, the only available vaccine to prevent Lyme Disease (LYMErixTM) was taken off the market and is no longer available. Even when it was in use, however, the vaccine was not considered sufficient to prevent infection in all cases, and the use of basic preventive measures (see above paragraph) was strongly recommended despite vaccination status.

Keller and Keller
