Abstract
This document is a letter published in the journal "Immunity & Ageing" that discusses the importance of understanding and improving influenza immunization for older adults. The letter highlights several research articles and a review that cover various topics related to influenza immunization in older adults, including vaccine immunogenicity, humoral immunity, host factors (such as sex, circadian rhythm, and obesity), and potential interventions. The research articles provide new data and perspectives on these topics, aiming to stimulate further research and the development of more effective immunization strategies for older adults. The letter was written by Sean X. Leng and Albert C. Shaw, who have disclosed their competing interests. [Extracted from the article]
