According to the British BBC, a "painless vaccine patch" has passed Phase I clinical trials (safety test) in the human body, and the results were published in the latest issue of the medical journal The Lancet. The researchers said that there are 100 tiny needles on the patch that can penetrate the surface of the skin and can be used to vaccinate the flu, just as effective as a normal flu shot.
A while ago, the “smart insulin patch†developed by the Chinese scientist Gu Yu’s team received a $5.8 million investment, triggering a good time for diabetics without the need for needle injections of insulin.
This is not the case, in addition to the "smart insulin patch", scientists have also developed a "painless vaccine patch." This means that hundreds of millions of children will no longer be afraid of injections when vaccinated, and vaccines can be imported into the skin through this new type of painless patch.
The patch is only a few centimeters in diameter and has a small, hair-like needle embedded in the center.
Needle, goodbye!

Unlike standard flu vaccines, it does not need to be kept in the refrigerator, which means that pharmacies can easily store them on the shelves for people to buy. Therefore, this painless, disposable vaccine patch is expected to reduce the need for needle injection.
Most volunteers say they are more inclined to this painless patch than injections.
