ABSTRACT
Immunization with influenza vaccine is an effective prophylactic strategy in preventing seasonal flu. In the elderly, the standard influenza vaccines are not as effective as in non-elderly healthy adults, since the elderly people are particularly susceptible to influenza. With the acceleration of the global aging process, it is necessary to develop novel influenza vaccines which are more effective in the elderly. This review discusses immunosenescence and the substantial progress that has been made in the influenza vaccines for elderly people.
