There's a new Lyme disease vaccine that has been developed by Pfizer and they are looking for volunteers for a phase 3 clinical trial. They need people who frequently walk outdoors or who have dogs that might bring in ticks. I figure that covers a large percentage of Lincoln, so there might be some potential volunteers out there.

Neither you nor the study doctor will know which has been assigned. This study will last about 30 months (2 and a half years). During this time, you or your child will have at least 7 in-clinic study visits, including 4-5 visits with blood draws. Additional blood samples may be needed if you or your child develop symptoms of Lyme disease. Over the course of the study, participants will need to report any changes in their health to the study team. The study vaccine and study-related procedures will be provided at no cost. You do not need health insurance to take part in this study. Research studies are voluntary, and taking part in a research study is a personal choice. You or your child may leave the study at any time, for any reason.
