A live attenuated H5N2 prime- inactivated H5N1 boost vaccination induces influenza virus hemagglutinin stalk specific antibody responses.
CONCLUSION: Our finding emphasizes the importance of prime-boost vaccination for effectively inducing stalk antibodies, which is an attractive target for developing vaccines that induce stalk reactive antibodies.
