Universal flu vaccine finishes Phase 3 trial, results expected before December
- N1H1L 6y agoThis is cool. Is this the same group that were shown in Netflix's Pandemic?
- kjaftaedi 6y agoDoes not appear to be so. This appears to be an Israeli pharmaceutical company. The Netflix show was following an American company called 'Distributed Bio' who is working on something called Centivax The Centivax people currently need to raise about 10 million dollars and currently are unsure if they are going to get any government funding or not.
- TheAdamAndChe 6y agoThis is incredible!! The flu kills hundreds of thousands every year. To have the potential to get rid of it like we have many other diseases would be amazing.
- IvyMike 6y agoIt isn't clear to me: can/will a "universal" flu vaccine confer immunity for multiple years with a single shot?
