Understanding the immunology of Shingrix, a recombinant glycoprotein E adjuvanted herpes zoster vaccine.

abstract：:Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an enormously successful human pathogen that can infect its host for decades without causing clinical disease, only to reactivate when host immunity is compromised. A normal immune response thus contains bacterial spread without inducing sterilizing immunity, therefore benefitting both ho...
