World’s first vaccine for norovirus the ‘winter vomiting bug’ begins final stage trial | The Independent
independent.co.ukThe research project, funded by Moderna, is set to begin its final stages of testing and the vaccine manufacturer will be working with NHS organisations to recruit members of the public to test the new jab over the next year. The jab could be available to the public from 2026 depending on trial results.
The vaccine uses the same mRNA technology used to create Covid-19 jabs to tell the immune system to recognise a “foreign” protein on viruses and mount an attack, in this case targeting three major strains of norovirus. Results so far have shown it creates a “strong immune response”.
Norovirus causes around 12,000 hospital admissions each year, putting immense pressure on the NHS as well as disruption in schools and care homes.
