Summary
This study is being done to answer the question: Does the use of statin lipid-lowering
medication change the effect of influenza vaccine? The research team will use the knowledge
gained from answering this question to understand how this medication affects long-lasting
immune responses to vaccines. The researchers will study the immune response to the influenza
vaccine in the blood (where antibodies are). The team will also look at how statin therapy
affects the bacteria that live in the gut by collecting stool samples. To be in this
research, participants must be adults willing to receive vaccines.
