Scientists track Kids' immune defenses after flu shots
NCT ID NCT04963166
Summary
This study aimed to understand how children's immune systems respond to the seasonal flu vaccine. Researchers followed 65 children, ages 2-17, who received their flu shot from their regular doctor. Participants collected simple nasal swabs and fingerstick blood samples at home over six months so scientists could measure immune changes. The goal is to use this information to help develop more effective flu vaccines for kids in the future.
