Abstract:Influenza vaccines have traditionally been tested in naïve mice and ferrets. However, humans are first exposed to influenza viruses within the first few years of life. Therefore, there is a pressing need to test influenza virus vaccines in animal models that have been previously exposed to influenza viruses before being vaccinated. In this manuscript, previously described H2 computationally optimized broadly reactive antigen (COBRA) HA vaccines (Z1, Z5) were tested in influenza virus 'pre-immune' ferret models… Show more
