The Importance of Getting Annual Flu Vaccines

Posted on April 27, 2023 by Louise Savoie

the-importance-of-getting-annual-flu-vaccines

As one of the leading providers of pharmaceutical services, we have always recommended annual flu shots to our patrons. Allow us to share the importance of getting vaccinated every year.

A lot of scientists are striving to create a universal vaccine against the influenza virus. Like other viruses, the influenza virus has a collection of genes that are covered in a protein coat. Immunizations often increase the development of antibodies that bind to the protein coat’s outer structures and render the virus inactive; in fact, this is how the influenza vaccination works. A new vaccination is required each year to specifically target these outer features of the influenza viruses that are currently in circulation since they are, regrettably, continuously evolving.

In recent years, researchers have discovered internal features in the protein coat of influenza viruses that are consistent across all flu virus strains. The development of universal vaccinations that specifically target such core components holds the possibility of providing a one-shot defense against various influenza virus strains.

A universal flu vaccine might be available right away and in vast numbers when a lethal new pandemic flu virus appears, as history predicts it would, which is even more significant than avoiding the inconvenience of an annual flu injection. In the next 10 to 20 years, tremendous scientific advances currently underway will provide us with a universal flu vaccination.
