    Hit or Miss: Flu Vaccines

    • 1228 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Influenza affects millions and causes more than 30,000 deaths in the US every year. Vaccination has to be done annually and yet effectiveness of the vaccine is variable due to multiple strains of the Influenza virus and the difficulty in predicting the strains for vaccine production. The question I researched in this experiment is whether or not there is a significant correlation between the degree of match between the strains of Influenza and the vaccine (measured as the percentage of matching amino acids of the flu virus and its vaccine), and the overall effectiveness of the vaccine. I used the U.S. Center for Disease Control website to find the most common flu strains sub typed during each season between 2001 and 2013, and the vaccines that were used in those seasons. Next, using the BLAST algorithm from the National Center for Biotechnology Information website, I determined the percentage of the amino acids that matched between the flu viruses and the vaccines. This represents the degree of the match. Then, I collected surveillance data for the corresponding years from the CDC website to determine the severity of the flu. The five criteria used to determine the severity were Mortality, Hospitalizations, Pediatric Mortality, Percentage of Outpatient Visits Related to Flu, and Percentage of Lab Tests that are Positive. Using statistical analysis, I determined the correlation between the degree of the matching amino acids of the vaccine and virus, and the severity of the flu epidemic. From this, I determined that there is a correlation between the degree of matching amino acids of the vaccine and virus, and the severity of the flu. Four out of the five criteria correlated to the degree of matching amino acids of the vaccine and the virus. I found a trend that as the degree of matching amino acids increased, the severity of the flu decreased. Furthermore, I noticed that a one hundred percent match of amino acids was not required to have a successful…

    CDC recommends a yearly flu vaccine as the first and most important step in protecting against flu viruses. Everyone 6 months of age and older should get a flu vaccine as soon as the current season's vaccines are available. If your child is younger than 6 months they are at high risk of serious flu illness, but are too young to be vaccinated. Caregivers in those cases should be vaccinated instead. Another important way to prevent getting and spreading illness is to wash your hands throughout the…

    Have you ever gotten a flu shot before? The moment you walk in the doctor's office and sit on the table. Just waiting for the doctor to come in makes you have even more anxiety. Then the doctor comes thru the door with the tiniest needle, that needle has a vaccine that will be injected into your arm to help kill off the flu virus. I've always wondered why we needed to get vaccines for different kinds of illnesses. I’ve also wondered what it takes to make a flu vaccine? The CDC says “The most common way that flu vaccines are made is using an egg-based manufacturing process that has been in existence for more than 70 years. R- To hen eggs to the actual flu vaccine being injected into your arm, one of the most…
