• Non-replicating, stable
• Needle-free delivery
• Target mucosal sites
• Established safety record in adults and children (MenBvac)
• Elicit Ag-specific immune responses
• Possess self-adjuvant properties
• Relatively cheap and straightforward to produce
• Delivered quickly and outside a formal clinic setting
• Less reliant on trained personnel for delivery
