Children aged 3 to 14 were immunized with live recombinant influenza A vaccine; about 120,000 children were followed up for 6 months. Analys is of the morbidity (excepting ARVI and influenza) of the immunized an d control groups permitted a conclusion about the safety of the prepar ation. The protective index of vaccine efficacy during influenza epide mic caused by A/Taiwan/1/86(HINI) virus was 1.3 to 1.42. Live recombin ant influenza vaccine is recommended for public health to be used for protection of children aged 3 to 14 from influenza.
