During the winter of 1954-55 we attempted to evaluate in human subjects the effectiveness of a quadrivalent anti-influenza vaccine.
An epidemic of mild influenza affected Montreal in March 1955, and its origin was traced to a virus of antigenic structure identical with that of virus A/Cuppett/50.
The quadrivalent vaccine given in our study led to an appreciable production of antibodies; their titre was quadrupled for strains A/PRS/34 and B/Lee/40 the response being much weaker with strains A/FMI/47 and A/Cuppett/50.
This quadrivalent vaccine conferred a protection against clinical influenza varrying between 40% and 80% according to the group.
