5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study tests the safety and effectiveness of a flu vaccine in school children. School children are usually the first members of a community to come down with the flu, and they often give the flu to their younger siblings, parents, and grandparents. It is hoped that giving school children a flu vaccine can help prevent the spread of the flu to other members of the community.
Detailed Description
This is a Phase III trial (an advanced study with a large number of patients). Your child will receive a single dose of flu vaccine, which is given by a nasal spray.
