This feels oddly fake. No journal of that name, nothing on INRAE (the research institute claimed to have published this). AI generated news? I wouldn't doubt it. I know that Chat-GPT is very good at making fake scientific summaries (complete with fake references using real names in the field) why not fake science news? Also, the vaccine is for the tick.. Not for us to use against the tick. For the tick..
Found it, real paper, wrong journal. Horrible article by Newsweek. https://microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40168-023-01599-7
Thank you.
Newsweek makes USA Today look like the Atlantic. Apparently they don't use fact checkers!
