Nanoparticle vaccine offers long-lasting protection against multiple flu strains
A new, nanoparticle vaccine could one day grant patients immunity to the flu with fewer trips to the doctor and without health officials correctly guessing which flu strains will become dominant each year.
The vaccine may allow "a person does not have to be vaccinated every year", and the vaccine protein may accompany changes in the flu virus, giving greater protection.
Team of researchers explains that the goal "is to develop a more effective and broadly protective flu vaccine so that a person does not have to get vaccinated every year"
Scientists in the United States produced a nanoparticle vaccine that protected rats against three strains of the flu virus, a result that can pave the way for a more effective human vaccine.
