Immunisation find

Researchers have found that administering the measles vaccine via an aerosol
can be more effective than traditional injection. A study published in The
Lancet found that 3.6 per cent of children who received Edmonston-Zagreb
vaccine by aerosol were inadequately protected a year later, compared with 8.6
per cent of children who received it by injection.
