Flu Vaccine
Study background
Seasonal flu can cause severe illness, hospitalization and death especially in high-risk groups such as pregnant women, young children, the elderly or individuals with chronic medical conditions. Current flu vaccinations on average are only 40 percent effective.
This study is researching a new flu vaccine that will be effective against all strains providing better protection. The flu vaccine is usually delivered yearly for immunization against seasonal flu viruses.
