The problem with that is that various bird species act as an influenza reservoir. Unless you want to perform extinction-level mass culling of birds, you're not going to be able to wipe it out for any significant amount of time.
- sudosysgen 5y agoAssuming universal vaccination, that specific strain is actually pretty much going to be wiped out. You're going to see other strains replace it, yes, but if we had in theory a 90% effective vaccine against every single strain of influenza we would be able to completely stop human transmission of influenza for a very long time.
