Reply to comment by DiceMaster in Does the common flu vaccine offer any buffer against H5N1 (Bird Flu)? by Esc_ape_artist
We don't "know know" because the infections are so rare and the virus is so dangerous. This is not a virus where one would do human challenge tests.
We do know what a successful flu vaccine match looks like though, and in animal tests (like the one linked) it shows what we want to see.
