Summary

This Pfizer study tests several experimental mRNA-based flu vaccines in 770 healthy adults aged 18 and older. Participants receive one dose and are monitored for about 6 months for safety and immune response. The goal is to see if these new vaccines are safe and trigger a strong defense against the flu.
