A comparative study of two preparations of allantoic live influenza vaccine, one for intranasal and the other for peroral immunization of children of school age, was peformed under conditions of a blind epidemiological trial. Previously obtained data on the safety and high immunogenicity of the intranasal vaccine variant, prepared from extremely attenuated cold-adapted strains, were confirmed. The peroral administration of the live influenza vaccine, in use in the USSR for active immunization of the adult population, also stimulated influenza immunity without producing postvaccinal reactions. Peroral and intranasal immunization with the above variants of live allantoic influenza vaccine markedly lowered in the frequency of influenza disease during an influenza epidemic, the mean index of effectiveness being equal to a factor of 2. Evidence of prospectiveness of influenza prophylaxis among school children was obtained. |
