The 2009 influenza A virus subtype H1N1 pandemic, a glance from Greece.

open access: yesLe infezioni in medicina, 2017
The 2009 influenza A - subtype H1N1 pandemic tested the public health care systems all around the globe, infecting millions and leading to thousands of deaths. Greece became the epidemic centre of the 2009 flu pandemic due to the low compliance of the general population towards the vaccination programme, the resistance acquired against antiviral drugs ...

Africa's Struggle to Meet Global Pandemic Influenza Immunization Targets: Lessons for Public Health Policy and Preparedness—A Focus on Ghana

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Influenza remains a significant yet under‐prioritized public health challenge in Africa, where unique hurdles such as limited surveillance, variable seasonal patterns, and under‐resourced health systems constrain effective prevention and control. This commentary provides a detailed analysis of the influenza landscape, with a focused

A VLP Vaccine Induces Broad-Spectrum Cross-Protective Antibody Immunity against H5N1 and H1N1 Subtypes of Influenza A Virus

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The recent threats of influenza epidemics and pandemics have prioritized the development of a universal vaccine that offers protection against a wider variety of influenza infections. Here, we demonstrate a genetically modified virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine, referred to as H5M2eN1-VLP, that increased the antigenic content of NA and induced rapid ...

Respiratory Viral Co‐Infections in SARS‐CoV‐2 Positive Patients in Burkina Faso: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The burden of viral co‐infections among COVID‐19 patients is underexplored in low‐resource settings such as Burkina Faso. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of respiratory viral co‐infections among laboratory‐confirmed COVID‐19 patients. Methods A cross‐sectional study was conducted from January 1 to

A large‐scale single‐cell transcriptomic atlas indicates the immune panorama of influenza A infection

open access: yesiMeta, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2026.
The study presents a large‐scale single‐cell transcriptomic atlas profiling over 612,010 peripheral immune cells from 97 individuals to decode the heterogeneity of influenza infection. These findings indicate a fundamental immune dichotomy determining clinical trajectories: a protective, monocyte‐centric antiviral state in mild disease versus a ...
