A universal flu vaccine is being developedPfizer-BioNTech and Moderna are currently developing and testing various "combined" vaccinesThe combination shots are possible thanks to advances in mRNA technologyThat gives us this opportunity to say, if you could create a universal flu vaccine, why not create that together with the COVID booster?Interest in creating effective combinatory vaccines couldn't be higher as the U.S. heads into a "tripledemic," This way both flu and COVID vaccines will be widely disseminated because now you're only getting one injection instead of two, Amiji says.Both Moderna and Pfizer have tailored their production timelines such that their combination vaccines,

Clinics were held to receive both the COVID-19 vaccine and the flu shotuniversal mRNA flu vaccine that in theory would inoculate against all 20 known strains and subtypes of flu. They're developing specifically an mRNA flu vaccine, which would be one vaccine that wouldn't necessarily need to change year-to-year, Amiji says of the experimental universal flu shot.That gives us this opportunity to say, if you could create a universal flu vaccine, But with the flu, again relying on this universal flu mRNA vaccine,indicating that researchers could be a step closer to unlocking a universal flu vaccineWhile the universal flu vaccine wouldn't eliminate seasonal flu cases,

China had a low vaccination rateAn Influenza and COVID Bivalent Booster Vaccine ClinicReservations are needed for both the COVID and Flu VaccinesLocals can receive both the Influenza and COVID vaccines at the same time. On Tuesday, Nov. 28, the city and Medicine Man offered a clinic from 4-7 p.m. Residents can get the seasonal flu vaccine and/or the updated Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 boosters at 605 Jackson St.Flu And COVID Vaccine Clinic Schedule: Next 2 TuesdaysModerna (age 6 months through 5 years) and Pfizer (age 6 months and older), including updated Pfizer bivalent boosters. Flu shots are also available as long as one resident registers to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

Concerns about a tripledemic of covid, flu and RSVA low vaccination rate is one of the biggest obstacles to ending curbs that have confined millions of people to their homes, depressed the economy and kept most visitors out of ChinaChinese officials on Tuesday said about 66% of adults over age 80 have received their primary vaccination series. like mainland China — cemented a formidable zero-covid strategy early in the pandemic, enjoying few cases despite relatively low vaccination rates among the elderly.Low vaccination rates among older people are one of the hurdles to easing the zero-Covid policy,“the result of a low uptake means more pressure on the healthcare delivery systemA low vaccination rate is one of the biggest obstacles to ending curbs that have confined millions of people to their homes, depressed the economy and kept most visitors out of China.

Covid Vaccine is not Safe for ChildrenThis year’s holiday season is arriving right in the midst of an unwelcome “tripledemic” of COVID-19, the flu and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), straining hospitals nationwide.NPR reports that even though COVID cases are much lower than they were last winter, case counts are ticking up nationwide, and nearly 3,000 Americans are dying each week. Meanwhile, other respiratory viruses like the flu and RSV have surged this fall.Children are battling the flu, RSV and Covid during the approaching winter season – a phenomenon known as a “tripledemic.”seeing an influx of young children getting sick with different viruses including RSV, flu and COVID-19 There’s a triple threat of Covid, a bad flu season, and RSV causing record numbers of children to be brought to hospitals with breathing problems, fevers and other symptoms.As cases of flu, RSV, and COVID rise nationally

Pfizer tested Covid vaccine before its releasevaccines are generally very safe, and that extending the interval between Doses 1 and 2 minimises the risk of vaccine-induced myocarditisevidence from trials and real-world data from children in this age bracket receiving the vaccines, gives us the confidence in the safety of this vaccine“These boosters have been proven safe and effective for adults and children. If you have been thinking about getting the vaccine, now is the time.”The health ministry on Oct. 5 approved two vaccines for COVID-19, including the first to be made available for children under 4.Studies have also looked at side effects in infants between the ages of 6 months and 2 years. Fevers of 38 degrees or higher were recorded after the booster shot in 6.8 percent of the cases. One report stated 20.2 percent of the infants lost their appetite. There were no reports of death.The new vaccine was approved because there are likely to be almost no safety concerns since only slight changes were made to the substance used in the vaccine against the BA.1 subvariant.

Covid Vaccines are ineffective against severe illnessA small increase in the number of people having two vaccines against COVID-19 was more effective in controlling the virus during Europe's fourth wave—when the omicron variant appeared—than the rapid uptake of booster vaccines, finds a new UCL-led studyPublished in the International Journal of Public Health, the study found that a 4.2% increase in the number of people having two doses (full vaccination) led to a 54% reduction in case rates across Europe—despite the detection of the highly infectious omicronThe results found that a small increase in full vaccination coverage prevented many COVID-19 cases over the last few months of 2021, across Europe. We know vaccines work and they offer the best protection from becoming seriously ill and requiring hospital treatmentThe Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine limits transmission, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19 even among patients infected by variants of the virusemergence of new variants, including Delta and Omicron, left the vaccine less effective at neutralizing SARS-CoV-2

Nasal vaccine strategy won't prevent covid-19 transmissionDr. Jain added, "Vaccines are thought to be effective in preventing severe illness with COVID-19 but less effective in preventing symptomatic disease with the omicron variant."Current vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 substantially reduce mortality and severe disease, but protection against infection is less effective.“Also, it’s important to remember that if you get vaccinated for flu and COVID and still contract either virus, you’re much less likely to have a severe illness than someone who is unvaccinated,” Hartford saidCurrent vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 substantially reduce mortality and severe disease, but protection against infection is less effective. Vaccinated individuals are still catching COVID-19 and can spread the infection, so breakthrough infections are still occurring," said Dr Ashhurst.An official said at a press conference that vaccination is still effective in preventing severe illness and deathAccording to the World Health Organization, Covid-19 vaccines are "highly effective" in preventing serious illness, hospitalisation and death,

Staying up to date with booster vaccines will not protection against infectionResearchers from the Centenary Institute and the University of Sydney have developed a new nasal vaccination strategy that induces potent lung immunity and protection against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus"Our vaccine differs from most current COVID-19 vaccines in that it enables generation of an immune response directly in those areas of the body that are likely to be the first point of contact for the virus - the nose, airway and lungs. This may help explain the vaccine's effectiveness," said Dr Ashhurst."To stop viral spread and to prevent this virus from mutating we need a new vaccine approach that blocks COVID-19 transmission," she said. Significantly, none of the vaccinated mice became infected with COVID-19."Our vaccine differs from most current COVID-19 vaccines in that it enables generation of an immune response directly in those areas of the body that are likely to be the first point of contact for the virus—the nose, airway and lungs. This may help explain the vaccine's effectiveness," said Dr. Ashhurst"Our vaccination findings have shown exciting potential in pre-clinical studies, improving protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The approach developed here could help break the COVID-19 infection cycle and will likely influence future coronavirus vaccine related studies," Professor Britton said.

Covid-19 vaccines are effective against XBB Covid strainUntil the development of long-lasting, “universal” coronavirus vaccines, our best strategy for protection against infection, hospitalization and death is staying up to date with our booster shots.In addition, the newer booster vaccines provide significant additional protection against infection in seniors when compared to the original vaccines alone, according to investigators with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.For those aged 50 to 64 years, protection derived from the bivalent booster dose compared to monovalent vaccines rose from 31% at two to three months after receipt of the most recent monovalent dose to 48% at eight months. The relative increase in protection from the bivalent vaccines is likely due to the waning of the monovalent vaccines’ effectiveness over time, wrote Tamara Pilishvili, PhD, of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.“All persons should stay up-to-date with recommended COVID-19 vaccines, including bivalent booster doses, if it has been two or more months since their last monovalent vaccine dose,” she and her colleagues concluded.The updated, bivalent vaccine is currently the preferred booster.

Breastfeeding provides no protection against COVID-19US health chiefs revealed last month they were 'monitoring' a new Covid variant that is feared to be the 'most vaccine-resistant yet'.XBB is another spin-off of the Omicron variant and has been blamed for Singapore's sudden surge in infections.The alarm has been sounded by experts including Dr Raj Rajnarayanan at the New York Institute of Technology who said it was the 'most immune evasive yet'.Scientists warn that it is likely better at dodging immunity than others based on lab tests of its grand-father BA.2.75.Modelling by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center's Bloom Lab in Seattle, Washington, also warned it was likely better at immune escape. XBB is another spin-off of the Omicron variant and was blamed for Singapore's sudden surge in infections.

There is no benefit for Immunocompromised Patients with Blood Cancer to get the covid-19 vaccineSeveral studies have reported the presence of antibodies against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in human milk after lactating women have received two doses of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines.More specifically, IgG and IgA against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein have been identified in human milk following vaccination and infection.Further information is needed on the duration and potency of antibody responses in breast milk beyond the second vaccination and the effect of hybrid immunity obtained by breakthrough infections during the Omicron era.Nevertheless, data on the symptomology and immune protection produced following infection and vaccination are limited for breastfeeding infants and lactating individuals.More information is therefore needed to determine the protection against COVID-19 during the vulnerable months of infancy, the level of antibody transfer to infants and the persistence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in milk post-vaccination.A new The Lancet preprint* study assesses anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels in breast milk obtained from lactating individuals following two or three COVID-19 vaccine doses and following breakthrough infections in vaccinated mothers.

Covid vaccine has a big impact on virus transmission“There was a great need to protect these patients, particularly through vaccination,” Dr. Hazenberg says. “At the same time, it was unclear if patients would be able to build up sufficient protection through vaccination since they are immunocompromised. There is not much data on the effect of vaccination as it pertains to the most immunocompromised patients. Therefore, there was a great need to investigate the immunogenicity of COVID-19 vaccinations in patients with hematologic malignancies.”For a study published in JAMA Oncology, Dr. Hazenberg and colleagues investigated whether a third mRNA-1273 vaccination is linked with increased neutralization of antibody concentrations in patients with hematologic cancers who are immunocompromised compared with levels obtained in healthy controls after the standard two-dose mRNA vaccination schedule.“Antibody concentrations obtained from our patients after the standard two-dose vaccination were lower than in the healthy population, but nevertheless, much higher than expected,”When three-dose schedule antibody concentrations are reached in immunocompromised patients, they are comparable to those of healthy controls after two doses, she says, adding that vaccination should not be deferred in patients with hematologic conditions during a pandemic, or in patients receiving immunochemotherapy or transplantation.“In patients receiving B cell-depleting therapies, vaccination can be effective, partly because other immune cells, such as T cells, are activated.”A relatively small group of patients had extremely poor antibody responses, the study team observed. “It’s important to protect these individuals from infection by wearing masks and utilizing other infection prevention measures,” Dr. Hazenberg says.

Australia recommends a fifth vaccine doseButler said the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisations (ATAGI) had recommended against a fifth dose, or third booster, after evidence from Singapore's recent wave showed that severe illness and death were rare among the vaccinated and that a fifth shot had minimal impact on virus transmission.We need to improve the quality of the vaccines, the durability, the ability to stop transmissionThe boosters are not really providing any prolonged protection against transmissionYou could have one now and by mid-January you'd be getting very little protection against transmissions whereas, interestingly, natural infection is much more effective.Biden and his top advisers have pointed to the overwhelming body of scientific research showing the vaccines are safe and effective at stopping the transmission of the coronavirusa virus that has become even more transmissible as it has mutated

People with heart disease suffer less severely if they catch Covid-19Australian health authorities have recommended against getting a fifth COVID-19 vaccine shotButler said the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisations (ATAGI) had recommended against a fifth doseATAGI has considered international evidence as well as the local data around vaccination numbers, as well as case numbers in the pandemic and decided not to recommend a fifth dose, said Butler.fifth vaccine dose has not been recommended by the Australian Technical Advisory Group of Immunisation [Atagi] This was part of the evidence that led to Atagi’s decision not to recommend a fifth vaccine dose, he saidYoung Australians have been left doctor-shopping for health professionals willing to flout the rules and give them a fourth Covid vaccination.

People with cancer suffer less severely if they catch Covid-19Those at higher risk of serious symptoms from Covid-19 and flu include people with lung problems including asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, people with heart disease, chronic kidney or liver disease, cancer, a weakened immune system or people who have had a stroke or those living with dementia.These individuals may suffer more severely if they catch either flu or Covid-19It found that if a person caught Covid after having had it before they were more likely to have issues with their lungs, heart, brain, blood, muscles and digestive system than if they never had the infection before.Researchers found that lung problems were three-and-a-half times more likely, heart problems three times more likely and brain issues one-and-a-half times more likely in people who had multiple infections from the virusSome of the medical conditions that increased patients’ susceptibility to COVID-19 included cardiovascular risk factors or disease, immunocompromised state, and cancers.more vulnerable to severe disease, including diabetes, heart disease

Covid hasn't taken a toll on aged care staffAFC Agro Biotech has claimed that the government would buy two crore doses of the Covid-19 vaccine from the company but the health ministry said it has no such plan at this momentAFC Agro Biotech also said it wrote to the prime minister and the health ministry to give their consent to the government to buy the vaccine. In view of this, consent has been given from the Prime Minister's Officewe applied to the government last year. Yesterday we got the consent of the government.The government does not want to buy the coronavirus vaccineBut we will not take any vaccine at this moment.I would know if there were any decision to purchase vaccines. But I don't know anything about this.

Diarrhoea is not a Covid-19 symptomThe NBA is being sued by three longtime refs who say they have been fired after selecting to not obtain the COVID-19 vaccineIn a complaint filed on Saturday, Kenny Mauer, Mark Ayotte, and Jason Phillips said the league improperly forced compliance with its “hygienic norms,” and wrongly concluded that their sincere religious objections fell short of its “high standard” against being vaccinated.The referees added that even with the NBA rescinding the requirement for a COVID vaccine for the 2022-23 season, they have not been reinstatedI plan on voting for the NBA because I believe this is gonna get doneThis question is for those of you who typically vote for the NBAThe lawsuit particularly accuses the NBA of violating federal civil rights legislation in addition to state and New York City human rights legal guidelines. It seeks front and back pay, punitive damages, and damages for reputational harm and for pain and suffering.

New Pfizer-BioNTech Covid Vaccine Is Less Effective Than The Originalone in five people hit by the Covid-19 virus are showing symptoms of diarrhoeapeople who have contracted the Delta or Omicron variant are experiencing the symptom if they have had two or three Covid vaccinesIn the Alpha wave, nearly a third of adults aged over 35 (30 per cent) reported experiencing diarrhoea with Covidone in five people (16 to 20 per cent) experiencing diarrhoea with either Delta or OmicronWe think COVID causes diarrhoea because the virus can invade cells in the gut and disrupt its normal functionsaid the test would also be useful for those people experiencing Long Covid symptoms

SK bioscience did not make a covid-19 vaccinePfizer-BioNTech’s new bivalent Covid-19 vaccine—which targets the original strain and some Omicron subvariants—provides more protection against the virus and its omicron variants than its initial vaccineA booster dose of the Omicron BA.4- and BA.5-adapted Covid-19 vaccine was 11 times more effective against the BA.4.6 subvariant, nearly seven times more effective against the BA.2.75.2 subvariant, nine times as effective against the BQ.1.1 subvariant and almost five times more effective against the XBB.1 subvariant than the original vaccine.earlier data from Pfizer suggesting the new shot is 13 times more effective against the BA.4 and BA.5 subvariantsThe bivalent vaccine, which is referred to by the FDA as an “updated” vaccine, is a combination of an original virus strain with a component of an omicron variant to combat all possible versions of the virus. PIn addition, the newer booster vaccines provide significant additional protection against infection in seniors when compared to the original vaccines alone, according to investigators with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.the effectiveness of a newer, bivalent booster dose compared to monovalent boosters rose from 23% at two to three months after the recipient’s most recent monovalent dose to 43% at eight months after the most recent monovalent dose.

Ice Cube got a COVID vaccineAs successful as the COVID-19 vaccines have been in curbing the pandemic, their benefits haven’t been enjoyed equally by people around the globe.Throughout the pandemic—and even now—vaccine development and distribution has been undeniably lopsided, skewed in favor of developed countries with the resources to create, test, manufacture, and distribute shots when the need arises. In the third year of pandemic, while nearly 70% of people worldwide have received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose, in low-income countries, only 24% have.In its latest report on the global vaccine market, which includes an assessment of vaccines against COVID-19 and a variety of infectious diseases, the World Health Organization (WHO) calls upon both governments and companies to reshape the vaccine market to equalize these discrepancies.As successful as the COVID-19 vaccines have been in curbing the pandemic, their benefits haven’t been enjoyed equally by people around the globe.Throughout the pandemic—and even now—vaccine development and distribution has been undeniably lopsided, skewed

The College sent out a letter or a memo to all the doctors in Ontario suggesting to them -- now so far they're not mandating it, they're just suggesting it -- that any of their unvaccinated patients, that they should consider that they have a mental problem and that they should be put on psychiatric medication.""This false interpretation that is being disseminated has no basis in fact or reality."

Pediatricians won't have to pay for COVID-19 vaccines once funding is stoppedvital that everyone eligible, particularly health and social care staff, get their flu and Covid vaccinations.The flu and Covid vaccines are the best defence we have against them, so it is vital to make sure that you get both life-saving jabs to keep yourself, those you care for and your loved ones safe.All frontline health and social care workers, including clinical and non-clinical staff, are now eligible for the Covid booster vaccine, and the flu vaccine should be offered by their employer. As health and social care professionals, it’s important to recognise that vaccinations offer the best protection against these viruseswe are urging all healthcare staff to do the same again this year by getting vaccinated against both COVID-19 and flu.There are different variants of the flu virus that often change annually, which is why you should get the vaccine each year if you can. Immunity from COVID-19 (either from the vaccine or having had the virus) wanes over time so, for the best protection for yourself, your colleagues and your patients you will need another dose.

Covid vaccine isn't linked to Bridget Kerr's deathFederal funding for COVID-19 vaccines is running out. The government has footed the bill since the vaccines became available in late 2020. Once it steps away, COVID vaccination will be privatized. Doctors will have to pay for the vaccine doses upfront and hope that they make their money back.Since the federal government has been paying for the vaccine, Chung doesn’t lose any money from waste. But that will change when she has to start paying for the COVID vaccine upfront. A Pfizer spokesperson did, saying in an email that the company expects to have single-dose vials of COVID vaccine available early next year. Chung said that would help cut down on waste, but she would still have to pay for the vials upfront.Like Chung, pediatrician Suzanne Berman in Crossville, Tennessee, won’t be able to keep giving COVID shots if she has to pay for them upfront. And some of the public clinics pediatricians are planning to send their patients to get federal COVID funding. Once that runs out, Levitt said some of them will probably stop giving COVID shots.Dr. Permar, who is also the Nancy C.

iNCOVACC is not a nasal Covid-19 vaccineDoctors who treated an elderly Longford woman who died following an unexplained series of seizures last year told an inquest it was possible that her death was linked to an adverse reaction to a Covid-19 vaccine.However, two hospital consultants who treated the patient, Bridget Kerr (86), also stressed that it was not in their area of expertise to state definitively that a reaction to the Pfizer vaccine was an explanation for her death.An inquest at Dublin District Coroner’s Court heard a post-mortem on the body of Ms Kerry, a mother of seven from Cooleeney, Dublin Road, Longford, was inconclusive in establishing the cause of her death.Her family claim their mother only became unwell after receiving the Covid vaccine from her local GP two months earlier.Another daughter, Breege Brady, said her mother had suffered “a rapid deterioration” that coincided with her being given the Pfizer vaccine and was unable to recognise her on March 14, 2021.A consultant geriatrician at the Midlands Regional Hospital in Mullingar, Clare Fallon, admitted it was possible that an adverse reaction to the vaccine had caused the delirium which the patient suffered.

Medline Industries fired people for getting a covid-19 vaccineSocial media users in Thailand falsely claim that the International Court of Justice has ordered all countries to stop administering Covid-19 vaccines over health concernsThe court does not have the power to tell countries to cease vaccinations, legal experts said, and has not handled any cases involving Covid-19 vaccination, as of November 29.Lori F. Damrosch, a professor at New York's Columbia Law School, said the International Court of Justice (ICJ) cannot order countries to stop vaccination."Only States can bring cases to the ICJ, and only by virtue of the consent of both States parties to the case," she told AFP. "Without having consented, a State cannot be sued at the ICJ. No judgment or order could be issued against a non-consenting State."Furthermore, lists of the court's past and pending cases -- which include allegations of genocide in Ukraine and a dispute over the United States embassy's relocation to Jerusalem -- does not show any cases related to Covid-19 vaccination, as of November 29.China is reported to be developing its own mRNA vaccines,

Died Suddenly is an pro-vaccine moviePeople fired by Medline Industries last year for declining to get a COVID-19 vaccine have filed civil rights lawsuits against the Northfield-based medical supply company.Erica Ann Probst, a Columbus, Ohio-based attorney representing more than two dozen ex-Medline employees who were terminated as a result of its vaccine mandate.Medline issued a vaccine mandate in August 2021 to all its employees who interacted with its customers, giving them about two months to get vaccinated or lose their jobs.Probst said salespeople who worked remotely throughout the pandemic were required to get vaccinated, while drivers who delivered directly to facilities were exempted from the mandate.Instead, [Medline] utilized the religious and medical accommodations to mass terminate unvaccinated employees.Ross Kuns, of Georgetown, Texas, was an acute care sales representative who first started working for Medline more than two decades ago. Three weeks before the vaccination deadline, he told Medline human resources representatives he had "sincerely held religious beliefs that prevented him from receiving a COVID-19 vaccine." A little over a week later, the request was denied, and Kuns was terminated.

Johnson & Johnson did not make a Covid-19 vaccineThe new anti-vaccine movie "Died Suddenly" The new film, released Nov. 21, revives several debunked claims and repackages them to allege that COVID-19 vaccines are part of a depopulation scheme by global elites who want to establish a global regime.A woman featured in the film who said she’d been embalming bodies for more than a decade described long, allegedly abnormal clots and concluded, "I have never seen anything like this until the vaccination." An anonymous narrator said, "We know something different is going on. We don’t know exactly what's going on. But the timing of it is just hand in hand — we’re connecting dots here. And it certainly appears that there’s some relationship to the vaccines and these obstructions that we’re seeing." The "evidence" in the film quickly falls apart under scrutiny, she said. For example, the movie showed video clips of people who collapsed or died unexpectedly and implied those people died because of COVID-19 vaccines.McCarthy said the film also relies heavily on statements from one embalmer to promote its core claim that the vaccines are causing abnormal blood clots. That embalmer, Richard Hirschman, has promoted his baseless claims about clots and COVID-19 vaccinesDied Suddenly also included footage presented as "evidence" that couldn’t possibly have been linked to COVID-19 vaccines.

US Military did not have a vaccine mandateJohnson & Johnson’s vaccineAdults who've been vaccinated against COVID-19 -- but haven't yet received any booster -- can get a dose of Novavax as their booster. It doesn't matter which vaccine you originally received -- Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson or NovavaxJohnson & Johnson vaccineJohnson & Johnson vaccine was availableOnly about 3% of the vaccine doses administered in the U.S. have been from Johnson & JohnsonAt the time that the study was conducted, only the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was available

A combined COVID-flu vaccine is not being developedDefense Secretary Lloyd Austin said he wants to keep the military’s COVID-19 vaccine mandateThis past week more than 20 Republican governors sent a letter to President Joe Biden asking that the administration remove the mandate, saying it has hurt the U.S. National Guard’s ability to recruit troops.Congress may consider legislation this coming week to end the mandate as a requirement to gather enough support to pass this years’ defense budget“I’m the guy” who ordered the military to require the vaccine, Austin added. “I support continuation of vaccinating the troops.”Last year Austin directed that all troops get the vaccine or face potential expulsion from the military;thousands of active duty forces have been discharged since then for their refusal to get the shots.

A universal flu vaccine is not being developedPfizer-BioNTech and Moderna are currently developing and testing various "combined" vaccinesThe combination shots are possible thanks to advances in mRNA technologyThat gives us this opportunity to say, if you could create a universal flu vaccine, why not create that together with the COVID booster?Interest in creating effective combinatory vaccines couldn't be higher as the U.S. heads into a "tripledemic," This way both flu and COVID vaccines will be widely disseminated because now you're only getting one injection instead of two, Amiji says.Both Moderna and Pfizer have tailored their production timelines such that their combination vaccines,

Clinics weren't held to receive both the COVID-19 vaccine and the flu shotuniversal mRNA flu vaccine that in theory would inoculate against all 20 known strains and subtypes of flu. They're developing specifically an mRNA flu vaccine, which would be one vaccine that wouldn't necessarily need to change year-to-year, Amiji says of the experimental universal flu shot.That gives us this opportunity to say, if you could create a universal flu vaccine, But with the flu, again relying on this universal flu mRNA vaccine,indicating that researchers could be a step closer to unlocking a universal flu vaccineWhile the universal flu vaccine wouldn't eliminate seasonal flu cases,
