University of Rochester Creates Transdermal Flu Vaccine Patch

There could soon be a new way to fight the flu without getting a shot.

Researchers at the University of Rochester have created a patch that sticks on the skin. They tested it on mice and say it worked but it hasn't been tested on humans yet.

More testing is needed to figure out other things such as how long the flu patch should stay on. If successful, this could be a breakthrough in vaccinating a lot of people quickly and cheaply.
