Almost everyone 6 months old and older should get a flu vaccine every year. Some people are more at risk of getting very sick from complications of the flu than others. These groups should be sure to get a flu shot each year: Children, especially from 6 months to 5 years old ...
However, the closely related strains of B/Victoria in Guangdong in 2021 (during the COVID-19 pandemic) were mainly converged in China’s domestic branch which belonged to the evolutionary branch V1A.3a.2 and was related to the WHO-recommended vaccine strains B/Washington/02/2019 (EPI ISL ...
The vaccine prepared with this virus was assessed in a randomized Phase I clinical trial [44,45], the results of which showed that, although antibody responses indicative of immune protection were achieved by administration of the vaccine with MF59 adjuvant, this strain was not suitable for large...

However, the selection of vaccine strains is non-trivial due to the exceptional large number of new influenza viruses in the new season and the burden in testing antigenicity of these virus against known vaccines. As a result, flu shots from CDC fail half the time4. Thus, timely surveillance...
” We thus divided children under 5 years: 6 months to 2 years and 3–4 years to avoid the impact of differences of vaccines’ prices. These two age groups shared the same cost and epidemiological data except cost of vaccine. The population size of each age group was obtained from the ...

Influenza A viruses pose a significant threat globally each year, underscoring the need for a vaccine- or antiviral-based broad-protection strategy. Here, we describe a chimeric monoclonal antibody, C12H5, that offers neutralization against seasonal and
