of the influenza vaccine is low (against infection). What is forgotten is the protection from non-communicable diseases.
What if you could reduce your risk to heart disease by 40%?
What is you could reduce you risk to dementia by at least 10%?
That is what vaccines do!

A recent study based on observations in humans and experiments in mice proposes that induction of bilirubin production in response to Plasmodium spp. infection is an evolutionary conserved mechanism against malaria. 🧪 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Turun biotiedekeskuksen tutkijat olivat mukana kansainvälisessä tutkimuksessa, jossa löydettiin uusi puolustuskeino malariaa vastaan.
Tutkimuksessa kävi ilmi, että keltaisuus toimii elimistön luonnollisena suojamekanismina malarialoisen aiheuttamaa infektiota vastaan.
