  • Moderna has developed a new mRNA vaccine effective against both flu and Covid-19, demonstrating a strong immune response in individuals over 50.

  • In a Phase III study with 8,000 participants, the combination vaccine mRNA-1083 showed equal or superior immune response compared to individual vaccines.
  • "The data shows that the combination vaccine mRNA-1083 even induces somewhat better immune reactions than the two individual vaccinations."— Carsten Watzl, immunologist at the Leibniz Institute for Labor Research at TU Dortmund, commented on the results of the Phase III clinical study.
  • The immune response against Influenza A was better than traditional vaccines, while the response to Influenza B was comparable.

  • The combination of flu and Covid-19 vaccination could help improve vaccination rates, which are currently low in Germany.
