An independent systematic review of influenza vaccine evidence published Wednesday in JAMA found that vaccination continues to reduce the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death, and that comparative studies turned up no new safety concerns for currently recommended immunizations.
The review was produced by the Vaccine Integrity Project, based at the University of Minnesota's Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, in collaboration with the American Medical Association. It was published alongside companion reviews of COVID-19 and RSV immunizations, and an accompanying commentary describing the process.
