Needle-free delivery of measles virus vaccine to the lower respiratory tract of non-human primates elicits optimal immunity and protection

Measles: The efficacy of needle-free vaccine delivery Research shows that measles aerosol vaccination is effective when the vaccine is delivered to the lower respiratory tract. Measles virus is a highly contagious and potentially deadly human pathogen, but is easily prevented by vaccination. An inte...
