I have NO idea what this translates to in English. I know this. My
first introduction to lyme disease and deer ticks was when my 90 pound
1/2 chow 1/2 shepherd came home and laid in the floor on light carpet
in ’92. As the minutes passed what I thought was mulch, dirt or even
ants was actually deer ticks moving – gazillions of them. Having no
clue what they were, I scooped a bunch up in an envelope, taped the
envelope shut and off I went to the vet. I learned that day what deer
ticks were and lyme disease (still thinking it was only a disease for
dogs). They dipped her, treated her immediately and gave her a vaccine
(the old one made in the 80’s and produced by a mfg in Georgia – not
the newer one from the mid 90’s). She was 4 years old then and is 12
now. Each year she has received the booster vaccine from the same
company in Georgia and in spite of having pulled more than 1,000 ticks
off of her in a 6 year period, she has never been ill or shown any
signs or symptoms of lyme. Not having educated myself that this is a
people’s disease as well – of course I have it. I’mm glad she got the
vaccine and although I don’t understand the differences in the old /
new vaccines I do know her vet has been insistent that she only receive
the same type from the same mfg in Georgia. This year he was not able
to get the booster shots from this same company and suggested that I
not vaccine her with the newer vaccine for Lyme. She is 12 now and is
more a couch potato than yard dog so I agreed. I think someone should
take a good look at what was it in the old vaccine that protected my
pet after more than 1000 attached ticks – of all types and this doesn’t
count the first time she was covered with deer ticks.

It means there is some immune dysregulation
with exposure to OSP A. It hasn’t been fully
caharacterized in humans, but they want to sell
it anyway. The people I know who have had adverse
events ALL had previously had Lyme disease.

I believe rOSP A throws the body into an immune
funk and the Bb come out again.
The symptoms there post LD vaccinated patients
have are identical to LD.
