First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at how the body's immune system responds to two different flu vaccines: the FluMist nasal spray and the standard flu shot. Researchers will measure antibodies in the blood, nose, and lungs of 30 healthy adults aged 18 to 40. Some participants will also have a bronchoscopy to check immune responses deep in the lungs. The goal is to understand how these vaccines protect the airways, not to treat or cure any disease.
