As bird flu continues to ramp up, many are wondering what tools—namely, vaccines—we have to fight it if such intervention becomes necessary. "Public-health and infectious di

Scientists are urgently working on developing a new vaccine for the H5N1 bird flu virus due to its increasing threat to both poultry and humans. The virus, which has caused significant outbreaks in wild birds and poultry farms globally, has also begun to infect mammals, including humans, with a high mortality rate. Current efforts focus on creating a vaccine that can be quickly adapted to new strains of the virus, using advanced technologies like mRNA vaccines, which have proven effective against other viruses like SARS-CoV-2. The urgency stems from the virus's potential to mutate into a form that could easily spread among humans, leading to a possible global health crisis. Researchers are also exploring universal flu vaccines that could offer broader protection against various influenza strains, aiming to prevent or mitigate future pandemics.
