| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Seasonal influenza vaccination is effective in preventing influenza infection and disease in healthy school-age children, while influenza vaccination is not generally thought to affect the risk of non-influenza respiratory virus infections (e.g. the common cold). Interference between respiratory virus epidemics has been reported in a series of ecologic studies, and it has been hypothesized that this phenomenon is associated with temporary non-specific immunity following a respiratory viral infection…. |
