The Lyme vaccine that isn’t and one that might be

For obvious reasons there is growing interest in a Lyme vaccine and growing questions about why dogs have one but people don’t.

The issue was covered in the NHPR podcast Patient Zero – which includes an awesome takedown of a quackish chiropractic laser treatment for Lyme – but there’s always more to know. Undark Magazine, home to excellent long-form reporting on scientific and technical issues, has a long piece about it. I won’t try to summarize it – you can read it here.
