The Super-K flu is spreading — it has experts worried after last year's record high flu season Australia has experienced an unusually early start to the flu season because of the fast-spreading variant.

As we head into autumn it’s time to get your influenza vaccine for the Super K variant. Over 1700 Australians died from flu in 2024/2025.

Novel mucosal vaccine offers broad protection against diverse influenza viruses A novel vaccine platform has been developed to induce broad, protective immunity against numerous influenza virus infections, showing promise as an effective mucosal vaccine strategy, according to a study published by researchers in the Institute for Biomedical Sciences at Georgia State University. The study published in the journal ACS Nano used cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a vaccine platform to display various human and avian influenza hemagglutinins (HAs) in an upside-down manner on the EV surfaces. The inverted HA tends to present the conserved HA stalk to the immune system to induce cross-protective influenza immunity while hiding the highly variable HA head to avoid strain-specific immunity. The investigators used mice to evaluate cellular and mucosal immune responses induced by the multiple HA EV vaccines. HA is a major influenza surface glycoprotein. EVs are natural nanoparticles that facilitate cell-to-cell communications. The researchers found that EV-based inverted HA vaccines hold great promise for developing universal influenza vaccines that target a mucosal route. Developing innovative vaccine platforms and delivery strategies to induce protective immunity against diverse influenza virus strains in the respiratory tract is crucial for preventing influenza infection and transmission in potential epidemics and pandemics. Mucosal vaccination effectively induces local immune responses,...

Multipurpose Anti-viral Pill may Treat Colds, Norovirus, Flu and Covid AI predicted that a forgotten breast cancer drug could be repurposed to treat many respiratory and gastrointestinal viruses, and subsequent animal tests suggests it may be right. A single drug has been found to inhibit a range of common viruses in lab studies, including coronaviruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), norovirus, and influenza and hepatitis viruses. It will be tested in a clinical trial next year, raising hopes that the pill could one day be taken at home to relieve unpleasant symptoms or even limit infections if there were another viral pandemic. “As far as we can tell, this is the first drug that’s ever demonstrated activity across all these viral families,” says Daniel Haders, co-founder of Model Medicines, the California-based company leading its development. If it is approved, Haders envisages it being a pill that people could take if, for example, they have a flu-like illness but don’t know if it is influenza, covid-19, RSV or something else...

First identified through an AI-based in-silico study, the drug binds to a pocket conserved in multiple single-stranded RNA polymerases. #influenza #RSV

Historic 1994 influenza vaccine cohorts define breadth of antibody and B cell responses toward future influenza A and B viruses B cell responses that bound to future H1N1 and influenza B virus strains, but not H3N2 strains, were elicited in adults by the 1994 influenza vaccine.

A study from the Doherty Institute has shown that seasonal #influenza vaccination primes the #immune system to respond to future strains, some that emerge decades later. #Antibodies & #Bcells were able to recognize future #viruses including #H1N1 & influenza B.
