(Belga) The Dutch university medical center Radboudumc in Nijmegen will investigate how the various corona vaccines can be combined with the flu vaccine. The center is starting a study with the cooperation of people over 60, who are already called up for a flu shot every autumn. There are also indications that the flu shot also offers “some form of protection” against the corona virus, the center said, but that is still under investigation.
“Do the vaccines reinforce each other, or not? Which order of vaccination provides the most antibodies against the coronavirus? And can we give the shots at the same time, or should there be a certain period in between? Those are questions we want answers to” , says Professor of Internal Medicine Mihai Netea. The center is still looking for people over 60 for the study. Participants must have been fully vaccinated against corona more than four months ago. (Belgium)
