Improving Flu Vaccine Effectiveness Through Clinical Research and Adjuvants
In this episode, we explore the role of adjuvants in vaccines. These addatives help the immune response to a vaccine, making it more effective at stoping infection, complication, hospitalization, and or death. We discuss the need for better vaccines and how adjuvants may be able to help.
