It may be useful for combatting future flu pandemics because it seems to neutralise any kind of influenza virus, including ones that spill over from non-human animals. The main tool we have for stopping the spread of flu is the annual vaccine, which stimulates our immune system to make antibodies against recently circulating strains of influenza virus. However, because influenza strains are constantly morphing, vaccines are only moderately effective.
