Flu vaccine with booster for older adults with health conditions
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a flu vaccine with an extra ingredient (called an adjuvant) is safer and works better for older Asian adults with chronic health conditions than a standard flu vaccine. It aims to provide better protection against the flu for people like you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
