That means there is a lot of chance of getting cross-reactivity.

This is a very potent vaccine. It took roughly about 30 days to make the vaccine from when we received the sequence information from CDC in Atlanta.

This is a very potent vaccine. The results of this animal trial are very promising.

The results of this animal trial are very promising, not only because our vaccine completely protected animals that otherwise would have died, but also because we found that one form of the vaccine stimulates several lines of immunity against H5N1.

Bird flu is something we should be prepared for, but even if a pandemic never happens, everything we learn now from this vaccine can be applied to vaccines for other emerging infectious diseases.
