As Britain braced for a winter of overlapping viral threats in the autumn of 2021, researchers at the University of Bristol offered a quiet but consequential reassurance: the human immune system, it turns out, is capable of meeting two challenges at once.

In a season when the stakes of hesitation were high, science had simplified the path forward.
