W.A. Keitel and colleagues reported their results in the December 2000 issue of the Journal of Infectious Disease ("Immunization against influenza: Comparison of various topical and parenteral regimens containing inactivated and/or live attenuated vaccines in healthy adults," J Infect Dis, December 2000;183(2)).
