It's been a point of bitter dispute among flu experts. Specific studies comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated patients show the shots save lives, but national figures show little change in the numbers of elderly people dying from flu since vaccination became widespread after 1980.What is going on? A new analysis has revealed that elderly people are still dying of flu, but far fewer than 30 years ago - and those who are dying are older. This has not only muddied the waters in determining the effectiveness of vaccinations programmes, but it suggests we are due for another flu pandemic.Last week, Kristin Nichol of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis told the largest flu meeting ever, in Toronto, Canada, that when the Dutch boosted vaccination rates from less than 50 per cent of the elderly population to more than 80 per cent during the 1990s, deaths linked to flu fell by one fifth in all over-65s, and by half in those under 70. Yet Lone Simonsen of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease in Bethesda, Maryland, reported that there has been no obvious drop in wintertime deaths linked to flu in the US and Italy since widespread vaccination took off in 1980.Veteran flu researcher Tom Reichert of Entropy Limited thinks he knows why. "What I didn't realise till I looked again at the raw data is that deaths from flu have been dropping like a stone in industrialised countries for the past thirty years."In a new analysis he found that excess winter deaths have been declining steeply in the US, Canada, France and Australia since the last, mild flu pandemic of 1968, regardless of the predominant flu strain and whether vaccination programmes were in place. "People under 75 just don't die of flu any more," he told New Scientist. That means the virus is becoming less virulent, or we are doing something to make ourselves less susceptible to it.People over 80 still die of flu, probably because they respond least well to vaccination. And there are four times as many people in their 80s now than 20 years ago, says Reichert. So the rise in deaths among the over 80s helped mask the overall drop in flu deaths until he looked closely at the numbers. He thinks the fact that there are fewer flu deaths overall explains why the impact of vaccination on populations as a whole has not been obvious.But what worries him is that whatever is making us less susceptible to flu might be setting the stage for a pandemic. In the Asian flu pandemic of 1957, a new flu strain, H2N2, ousted H1N1, the strain circulating since 1918. Reichert reported in Toronto that, starting in 1947, H1N1 acquired a mutation that made it much less virulent. That drop in H1N1 virulence might have made it less contagious, allowing a slightly more transmissible H2N2 to evolve and replace it. If so, the drop in virulence of today's circulating flu strains could equally be paving the way for a more deadly strain to take over.
