Immunity. 2020 Feb 18;52(2):219-221. doi: 10.1016/j.immuni.2020.01.017.

Abstract

There is no highly effective tuberculosis vaccine. Darrah et al. (2020) and Tait et al. (2019) are setting new benchmarks for protection against infection and pulmonary disease by changing the route of vaccine delivery and by using a protein subunit vaccine with a potent adjuvant.
