It's the main point of entry to the body for respiratory viruses. If it works it's by far the best place to stop an infection.
The problem is "if it works": There's been a few attempts in the past and from what I've seen, none of them worked well.

- Izkata 4y agoNasal vaccines are inhaled the same as a respiratory virus is inhaled. The theory is they'll trigger immunity in the same tissues the virus would first encounter, instead of letting the virus get a foothold in the respiratory system before reaching the rest of your body, where an injected vaccine would have built the most immunity.
