Directed attenuation to enhance vaccine immunity.
Many viral infections can be prevented by immunizing with live, attenuated vaccines. Early methods of attenuation were hit-and-miss, now much improved by genetic engineering. However, even current methods operate on the principle of genetic harm, reducing the virus's ability to grow. Reduced vi...
