“But lately, researchers have found that there are problems with the egg-based approach that specifically relate to H3N2.
In the process of adapting virus to grow in eggs, that seems to introduce further changes to the [H3N2] virus, which may impair the effectiveness of the vaccine, Belongia said. In other words, while growing the flu virus for vaccines, H3N2 mutates to adapt to the eggs, which seems to result in a vaccine mismatch.”
H3N2 could be a Captain Trips wannabe. Awesome!
You call it Captain Trips but around here folks call it Tube Neck.
