Perth scientists - new vaccine designed to prevent asthma in children
Australian Trial for Asthma Prevention in Children
It is estimated that 40% of Australian childran have some sort of allergy or develop asthma. In a breakthrough, Perth scientists have developed a trial vaccine to prevent asthma in children.
The Institute for Child Health Research is undertaking the trial on high-risk babies and toddlers and they will be monitored for any reaction to the vaccine. The oral vaccine is expected to boost the body's immune system to prevent allergies that usually lead to serious cases of asthma. The trial will kickoff in Melbourne, Perth and New York and may move to European countries such as Germany and Sweden.
