Vaccine Information Statements must be provided to vaccine recipients or their guardians, as required by the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 prior to immunization. These materials are available free of charge at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website (www.cdc.gov...
These limitations of current vaccines emphasize the need to develop novel “universal” or “broadly protective” influenza vaccines. An ideal universal vaccine should cover all influenza A and influenza B viruses independent of antigenic drift or HA/neuraminidase (NA) subtype. In contrast, a broadly...
The flu vaccine is usually given as 1 dose per flu season starting in October of each year. Children under 9 years of age who have never had a seasonal influenza vaccine need 2 doses. The second dose of vaccine is important to raise their level of protection and should be given 4 weeks...
Those who have missed the flu shot can still get the vaccine during an outbreak. However, the best method of prevention is to get the shot prior to the flu season. For more travel information, check the CDC National Center for Infectious Diseases Infectious Disease Information, Influenza (Flu...

A secondary endpoint of the study was the occurrence of culture-confirmed influenza caused by viral types/subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations in association with a modified CDC-defined ILI, defined as the occurrence of a temperature > 99.0°...
• BD SARS-CoV-2/Flu for BD MAX™ System has not been evaluated for patients receiving intranasally administered influenza vaccine. • The performance of this device has not been assessed in a population vaccinated against COVID-19. • Enterovirus C (Coxsackievirus A17) was shown to ...
First inactivated influenza vaccine was mono-valent (influenza A) [196]. In 1942, a bi-valent vaccine was produced after discovering the influenza B virus. It was later identified that the influenza viruses mutate, leading to antigenic changes [197]. WHO has published annual recommendations since...
