Intradermal Injections of Influenza Vaccine

Jacob Greenblatt M.D.1

1 1675 Bedford Street, Stamford, Connecticut

Several colleagues and I have been administering 0.1 to 0.2 cc influenza vaccine intradermally into infants and children for a numher of years. This was based on a report on adults that intradermal injections give almost as high titers as subcutaneous.

The impression is that these injections were effective and without side effects. A systematic study should be done.
