tip 21 for 2012

Flu shots….think and rethink whether to have them and check out some recent research!


"Annual vaccination against influenza virus hampers development of virus-specific CD8⁺ T cell immunity in children." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21880755,


"We recently demonstrated that vaccination against seasonal influenza prevented the induction of heterosubtypic immunity against influenza A/H5N1 virus induced by infection with seasonal influenza in animal models, which correlated with the absence of virus-specific CD8(+) T cell responses."
