  • The vaccine is the world's first authorized combination shot for both respiratory viruses, based on positive Phase III trial results.
  • In trials with around 4,000 adults, it induced higher immune responses against flu strains and SARS-CoV-2 compared to standard vaccines, with no safety concerns.
