• PREDAC is a semi-automated and user-friendly method for flu vaccine recommendations based on HA protein sequences. • PREDAC performed comparably to the WHO in recommending vaccines of influenza A(H3N2) viruses during the period of 2013–2023. • PREDAC can serve as a useful supplement to the traditional approach for flu vaccine recommendations. • More intensive surveillance of antigenic variations in the influenza virus are needed to improve vaccine recommendations.
• PREDAC是一种基于血凝素(HA)蛋白序列的流感疫苗推荐的半自动且用户友好的方法。
• 在2013 - 2023年期间,PREDAC在推荐甲型(H3N2)流感病毒疫苗方面与世界卫生组织(WHO)表现相当。
• PREDAC可作为流感疫苗推荐传统方法的有益补充。
• 需要对流感病毒的抗原变异进行更密集的监测,以改进疫苗推荐。
