Important: VAERS reports alone cannot determine if a vaccine caused an adverse event. Reports may contain incomplete, inaccurate, or unverified information. Correlation does not equal causation.

Epstein-Barr virus antibody positive has been reported 4 times in association with Lyme Disease (Lymerix) vaccination in VAERS. This represents 0.2% of all 2,528 reports for this vaccine.
Among these reports, 1 mentioned death (25.00%) and 1 involved hospitalization (25.0%).
Epstein-Barr virus antibody positive is the #394 most frequently reported symptom for Lyme Disease (Lymerix) out of 524 total symptoms.
Disclaimer: VAERS reports describe events that occurred after vaccination but do not establish that the vaccine caused the event. Many reported symptoms may be coincidental or related to underlying conditions.
Seeing 4 reports of Epstein-Barr virus antibody positive after Lyme Disease (Lymerix) vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The 25.00% mortality rate among these reports is elevated, but this reflects the severity of the condition itself rather than vaccine causation.
This data comes from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), jointly managed by CDC and FDA.
