Q: "The conventional approach to developing flu vaccines today is one in which we perform surveillance worldwide " said David Topham  director of the New York Influenza Center of Excellence and professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Rochester in New York.
"We collect the viruses that are circulating in people " said  Topham  who was not involved in the new study . Those viruses then typically are studied in ferrets    he  said.
"We create an antigenic map of each virus and determine how similar or different that is than the (current) vaccine strain  and if it's different enough from the vaccine strain then we select that virus to be in  next year's vaccine " Topham  said. In other words  they make their best guess on what strains will be most likely to spread and cause illness based on surveillance data
On the other hand  the new study suggests "using high-throughput sequencing methods and genetic engineering to rationally design a virus to use as a vaccine "  he  said. "I thought it was a very innovative and comprehensive approach."
The new study acted like "rocket science" compared with the conventional approach used to develop flu vaccines   he  said.
So what does the future hold for flu vaccines and where could this new approach fit in? There has been a shift among researchers around the world to focus on developing universal vaccines   Topham  said.
"These  for influenza  would be vaccines that would last for at least five years and protect against 75% of the viruses that are out there "  he  said. "There are many ways that we might be able to achieve that. This approach that's described in this paper is just one approach."

Q: Images of Colbie Holderness after an alleged incident with her then-husband   Rob Porter   in the early 2000s. (Courtesy of Colbie Holderness)
The picture  if you havenât seen it  shows Colbie Holderness  one of  two ex-wives who have accused senior White House aide Rob Porter of physically abusing them . Porter  in the statement announcing his resignation Wednesday  declared that âthese outrageous allegations are simply false. I took the photos given to the media nearly 15 years ago and the reality behind them is nowhere close to what is being described.â
Following a tepid response by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly after news broke of a  Rob Porter's  history of domestic abuse  Post opinion writer Christine Emba says it's time to reconsider the general's "adult in the room" status. (The Washington Post)
Explain how White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly  who reportedly knew of the FBI reports  could assert  in a statement circulated before and after the abuse photos emerged  â Rob Porter  is a man of true integrity and honor and I canât say enough good things about  him .  He  is a friend  a confidante and a trusted professional.â
 Rob Porter's ex-wife Jennie Willoughby  told The Post in an interview that the White House aide was abusive during their marriage.  Porter  resigned Wednesday after the allegations became public. (Dalton Bennett/The Washington Post)
Consider Porter  the seeming golden boy. Harvard University. Rhodes scholar. Republican bona fides (his father  Roger Porter  worked for President George H.W. Bush;  Rob Porter  served as chief of staff to Utah Sen. Orrin G. Hatch) to match what the Deseret News called his âstrong Latter-day Saint pedigree.â A man like that wouldnât abuse his wife  would he?
