USA needs more effective flu shots, experts say
- zoowar 14y agoWhat we really need is a more efficient process for producing vaccine once a flu strain has been identified. No more guessing. Observe and react.
- Yaa101 14y agoUSA needs to grow a F concience. (sorry for swearing)
- patrickgzill 14y agoFrom what little I know about "herd immunity" it would seem a bare minimum requires 75% efficacy of the vaccine with 100% vaccination. Since this flu vaccine is only 62% effective, I come to the conclusion that there is no herd immunity effect for flu, even if somehow everyone got the flu shot. (am willing to be corrected if I am wrong)
