Stephanie Snow+FollowFlu Shots May Be History Soon?!Imagine never having to get a yearly flu shot again. A new vaccine from a Nebraska lab could protect against multiple flu strains—across humans, pigs, and birds—for years at a time. In tests, vaccinated pigs didn’t get sick even when exposed to nasty flu viruses, and their immunity could last a decade. If this works in humans, we might finally ditch the annual flu shot routine. Universal flu vaccine, anyone? #FluShot #VaccineBreakthrough #ScienceNews #HealthInnovation #Health18095Share
