I’ve read that same theory. It isn’t a huge leap to think it’s right.

A Pfizer vaccine or Lyme disease? I'm not about to find out.

Are you sure you haven't already found out? Which companies manufactured the vaccines you have already taken?

First identified in Lyme, Connecticut.

Yuppers. I got it in 1997 along with 25% of the hamlet of Hampton, CT, living in a heavily wooded area about 25 miles from Lyme.

I remember at least one woman in less wooded Wallingford who was denied anti-biotics because a good test wasn't developed yet and her doctor asserted that Lyme was over-diagnosed. She was permanently weakened.

My own doctor had no problem working on the Lyme presumption, and my wife found the bullseye rash (on the back of my leg), which pretty much iced it.

The anti-biotics early did their job in three weeks, effectively better in three days. A Hampton woman who was skilled with naturopathy tried that route when she had it. No dice. She conceded and took the anti-biotics in time. When you need them, you need them.

I have little fear of Lyme in Arizona, but I wouldn't take a vaccine anyway. An earlier non-RNA version was a failure.

The earlier vaccine worked just fine. It was a marketing failure.

The Ice Man found in the Italian Alps who died 8000 years ago had Lyme. Pretty sure the US Army wasnt to blame. This isn’t an American disease at all - we were just the first to describe it.

I think they might be attempting genocide instead of trying to prevent Lyme disease.

I have heard that Lyme disease was created by man.

The only way I will take a needle again will be if I am unconscious in the emergency room and have no say in the matter. I do not trust Pharmacology companies or more and more, medicine in general. When it is being used to kill people, to thin the population then nothing about it can be trusted. And while we have doctors we can trust those doctors don’t necessarily know what is actually in the vials.

Probably. That is why I did not state it was fact. Lot of kooky stuff out there. I figured people would have something to say.

Pretty darn sure.

I haven't taken any vaccines and absolutely have no plans to do so.

“It’s an mRNA vaccine. They aren’t putting that hot dog water in my arm.”

No need for another one of their death shots. Ivermectin treats/cures Lyme Disease.

Since childbirth you have not received a single vaccine? 😉 sorry if i’m a bit skeptical.

Cave men had Lyme disease so you heard wrong.

Of course not. Don't be silly.

I've had only one vaccine in the last 40 years, and that was the pneumococcal vaccine. That was because that particular vaccine works against a bacterial disease that does not mutate every 24 hours like a viral vaccine - which makes the others almost useless while increasing the risk of side effects.

You know. Like the COVID jab that worked so well :-).

"Lymes is like any disease introduced into virgin territory. It spreads fast."

The virgin or the Lyme?

Let’s see if I have this right.

The article says “Instead of fighting lyme once it’s within the body like traditional vaccines, the immunized person delivers neutralizing antibodies to the tick once it attaches.” Question: how does the immunized person get immunized in the first place?

Article says further: “The deer tick that’s carrying the Lyme bacteria bites the person, the antibodies from the blood actually enter the tick’s guts and they kill the bacteria in the gut, ... So the tick, as it feeds on the person, can no longer transmit the bacteria to the person and therefore protects them from getting Lyme disease.”
Further question: How long must this immunized person have to endure the tick bite before the bacteria in the tick is killed thereby protecting the person, who is already immunized, from getting infected?

It sounds like a big bunch of word salad to me.
