New #mRNAFluVaccine 30% more effective than traditional flu shots for adults 50 & older mRNA uses genetic instructions to prompt cells,build proteins, generating broader immune response,training white blood cells/memory Bcells to recognize conserved parts of the virus that don’t change as frequently
New mRNA Flu Vaccine for Older Adults Explained - Washington National Biomedical Research Center
Adults over age 50 face a higher risk of hospitalization and death from influenza each year. Now, a new mRNA flu vaccine coming soon will offer another option for older adults. WaNBRC Director Deborah...
