Immunity to hemagglutinin and neuraminidase results in additive reductions in airborne transmission of influenza H1N1 virus in ferrets. Sci Adv. 2026 Mar 13;12(11):eaea8719. Abstract submitted by kickingbird at 2 days ago from Sci Adv. 2026 Mar 13;12(11):eaea8719 Currently, there is limited knowledge on the impact of immunity to hemagglutinin (HA) and/or neuraminidase (NA) on the transmission of influenza viruses. Therefore, using intramuscular vaccination, intranasal ... Liu Y, Boklund AE, Kj?r LJ, Liang Y, Mortensen S,.
