Abstract

A pandemic influenza vaccine with a specific type of vaccine antigen has been linked to an increased incidence of narcolepsy in children from 2009–2010. However, the recent retraction of an article that reported a putative autoantigen means that the search for the mechanisms behind the vaccine–narcolepsy connection continues.
