Summary
This trial will compare the effectiveness of two types of influenza vaccines - those made using eggs, and those that don't - in adults. The goal is to see if there are any differences in the body's immune response to the two types of vaccines.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-64 who are patients at the Marshfield Clinic in Wisconsin and have been living there since July 2015. Participants must be able to consent and follow study rules. Pregnant individuals, those already vaccinated for flu this season, or involved in another clinical trial with an experimental agent cannot join.
What is being tested?
The study compares immune responses to two types of flu vaccines: one grown in eggs (Standard IIV4) and two not grown in eggs (Flucelvax from cell culture & FluBlok recombinant). It aims to see if non-egg-based vaccines produce a better immune response over two flu seasons.
What are the potential side effects?
Common side effects of influenza vaccines include soreness at the injection site, headache, fever, nausea, muscle aches. Rarely they can cause allergic reactions or more serious issues like difficulty breathing.
