A recombinant influenza A virus expressing domain III of West Nile virus induces protective immune responses against influenza and West Nile virus.
West Nile virus (WNV) continues to circulate in the USA and forms a threat to the rest of the Western hemisphere. Since methods for the treatment of WNV infections are not available, there is a need for the development of safe and effective vaccines. Here, we describe the construction of a recombina...
