“We believe that a vaccine for Lyme disease could be an important tool in the fight against this growing public health threat,” said Dr. Amy Kappelman, an investigator on the study. “This year’s tick season is expected to be particularly bad, and we need to find better ways to protect children from this dangerous disease.”
