Summary

This study tested whether a high-dose flu vaccine works better than the standard dose in adults aged 50 to 64. About 1,180 participants received either the high-dose or standard-dose shot, and researchers measured their immune response 28 days later. The goal is to see if the stronger dose provides better protection against the flu for this age group.
