Description: We're almost a month into autumn and there's a definite nip in the air which means that flu season - and the flu shot - isn't far away. Maybe you'll also be thinking about whether or not to get a COVID booster. But imagine if there was one vaccine that could protect you against both of those - and more. Well a recently published American study suggests that a universal vaccine may very well be possible. Dr Bali Pulendran is a Professor at Standford University's School of Medicine, Director of its Institute for Immunology, Transplantation and Infection and senior author of the study. He talks to Susie Ferguson about what this could mean in the face of another global pandemic.
