          however, such a stratagy is fraught with additional problems
          (e.g., how long is long enough, antibiotic-related toxiciti*sp
          *to.), and is therefore not feasible. It then is necessary to
          supplement the suppressive effect of antibiotics with an active
          immune response which would serve to "map up" the late-

          garminating v*gotativs forms from these sporan. Consequently,

          the prsotnce of an active irinune-response, g&norated      to
          exposure offers the highest probability of survival. Failing
          that, initiation of vaccination in concert with antibiotics after

          exposure should enable an infected individual to generate an
          immune response that could reac@. in A similar way, albeit with
          somewhat loss certainly. In the primate experiment* su=mriz&d
          above, this strategy proved effective.
