Discussion on this year’s severe and ongoing seasonal influenza epidemic. Renowned flu researcher and GVN Center of Excellence Director Dr. Peter Palese of the Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine will update participants on the status of the annual flu epidemic; explain how the annual flu vaccine became mismatched to the strains of flu causing the majority of illnesses this year; describe the latest in the efforts to develop a universal flu vaccine against all influenza strains that would obviate the need for annual vaccines; and answer questions about influenza’s impact on businesses.

The webinar is open to the public and is part of an ongoing series of discussions on key viral threats to the private sector presented under the auspices of GVN’s Business Leadership Council.
