MERIDEN, Conn. — Protein Sciences Corp. on Monday announced today that doses of its Flublok influenza vaccine have been released and are now available for shipment.
Flublok is triple the strength of traditional flu vaccines and is the only flu vaccine made without eggs, antibiotics and influenza virus.
"We are pleased to deliver Flublok on schedule and with ample time for people to get vaccinated this season," stated Manon Cox, president and CEO of Protein Sciences. "Last year many consumers allergic to eggs or gelatin or those seeking a pure flu vaccine told us they were grateful to receive Flublok. By being earlier to market and having a wider distribution network this year we hope we can reach even more people who want or need Flublok."
Flublok has a unique CPT code (90673) and is fully reimbursed by most insurance companies, the company stated.
