Needle-Free Flu Shot

From NBC News -

Needle-Free Flu Vaccine Patch Works as Well as a Shot
by MAGGIE FOX

A press-on patch that delivers flu vaccine painlessly worked as well as an old-fashioned flu shot with no serious side effects, researchers reported Tuesday.

People who tried out the patch said it was not difficult or painful to use, and tests of their blood suggested the vaccine it delivers created about the same immune response as a regular flu shot, the team reported in the Lancet medical journal.
