Flu vaccines (疫苗) work by arming the immune system with an enhanced ability to recognize and fight off the flu virus.Vaccines introduce proteins found on the surface of fu viruses,causing the immune system to produce antibodies that are ready to react when the virus attack. However, flu vir...
All vaccines in the 2022-2023 flu season were quadrivalent, meaning they targeted 4 strains of the flu, 2 type A flu viruses (H1N1 and H3N2) and 2 type B flu viruses (Victoria and Yamagata lineage) and were well-matched to the circulating viruses. Each year, flu viruses may mutate, mea...
根据第一段第三句“Flu experts are already admitting that most vaccines will give at best basic protection, because they’re based on old-fashioned technology.”(流感专家已经承认,大多数疫苗最多只能提供基本的保护,因为它们是基于过时的技术。)可知,下季的流感疫苗是根据以前的技术开发的,很可能效果不好...

That's one of the worst performances in the last decade, since U.S. health officials started routinely tracking how well vaccines work. In the best flu seasons, the vaccines were 50 to 60 percent effective. "This is an uncommon year," said Dr. Alicia Fry, a flu vaccine expert at the...

Australian flu vaccines work by exposing the immune system to tiny amounts of the inactivated flu virus. The immune system takes note of small proteins on the surface of the virus within the vaccine, and remembers them. These proteins are known as the haemagglutinin (H) and the neuraminidase ...
"Vaccines are safe and vaccines work. For polio, as for COVID-19 and influenza, vaccines can and do save lives. The other main policy responses for COVID-19 are continued surveillance and securing access to antivirals for at-risk populations."■...
Such low levels of vaccination coverage among HCWs could be at least partly attributed to the increasing phenomenon of vaccine hesitancy (VH), defined as a delay in acceptance or refusal of vaccines despite availability of vaccination services [11]. In 2011, the “3Cs’’ model was proposed ...
