Abstract

In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, two articles (Lee et al., 2019; Henry et al., 2019) find the influenza-specific antibody repertoire in humans becomes static over time and with age, despite repeated exposures. Identified persistent dominant clones target conserved viral epitopes, supporting the feasibility of a universal influenza vaccine.
