Influenza

Study

Influenza in people aged 50 and over

 

About the study commissioned by Diex Recherche:

Every year, influenza affects thousands of people in Quebec, affecting not only the health, but also the daily lives of many families.

Contrary to what many people think, influenza is never a simple cold.

Every fall and winter, the virus spreads rapidly, particularly in public places.

The flu vaccine is not immunity, but rather a form of barrier to reduce the serious effects of the virus, especially with the immune system becoming less effective the older you get.

We are offering you an opportunity to participate in a clinical study on an influenza vaccine.
