"In a perspective published last month in The New England Journal of Medicine, an international team of medical researchers evaluated the efficacy of the flu vaccine employed for the 2017 flu season in Australia. ""And they say it came up short – to say the least. In a preliminary estimate, the team evaluated the vaccine as “only 10 percent effective” at preventing the specific strain of virus that was predominant during Australia’s flu season. "(In 2017, roughly 215,000 cases of flu were diagnosed in Australia — as opposed to 59,000 in 2009.)" http://ift.tt/2pqNqA2
