I don't believe there is a vaccine to prevent MS. There are a few treatment options, but they are limited, and there is no known cure. For more info on MS, try visiting wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_sclerosis

It is called NeuroVax, but I am not sure if it is out yet. In 2005 scientists were doing more testing on this drug. I have not heard of it being out yet or approved by FDA for use.

that neurovax isnt really a vaccine its just another, more powerful drug to treat certain kinds of ms. which are relapsing remitting and secondary progressive. If they did find a actuall vaccine that would be insane... they should spend money on a cure so they can help people with ms. and not give out shots to random people who have less of a chance gettign ms than my mom does ending up int a wheelchair by my graduation.

there are two vaccines out there. one is neurovax and the other is tovaxin. neither is approved or on the market, each is still in trials. they take a persons own blood and makes a vaccine specific to them.. its kinda cool.. Im hoping they work, I have had MS for 2 years now.
