There is a vaccine for humans. It was introduced in 98 but because of slow sales (according to GlaxoSmithKline) it was stopped in 2002. So, there IS a vaccine and the ability to make another but you'd have to convince the drug company there's a market this time. The increase in diagnosis should be enough, but alas, it is still all about money, not health.
You'll need some famous actor/actress to come down with Lyme and become the spokesperson of the times, like Michael J. Fox has done with Parkinsons Disease.
