Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides engineered polynucleotides encoding both the receptor binding domain (RBD) of a SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and an influenza hemagglutinin (HA) protein. Also provided are influenza viruses that comprise the engineered polynucleotides and express both the RBD and HA protein on their surface and methods for using these influenza viruses to generate an immune response to both influenza and SARS-CoV-2 in a subject.
