Overview

Better understanding of the immune responses to influenza vaccination is needed in order to understand situations of poor vaccine response. Adults will receive influenza vaccination and then have peripheral blood drawn at pre-defined intervals in order to study the lymphocyte responses.

Interventions

  • Biological Influenza vaccination
    Adults will receive one intramuscular dose of seasonal quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine, as indicated for standard of care.

Primary outcome measures

  • Influenza neutralizing antibody titers [Time frame: 21-42 days]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Community-dwelling adults able to provide consent who need influenza vaccination for standard of care

Exclusion criteria

  • febrile illness at time of vaccination
  • active malignancy
  • use of immunosuppressing medications
  • blood donation in the past 60 days
  • influenza vaccinated during the preceding 6 months
  • allergic reactions to influenza vaccination

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
