SUMMARY • Good safety profile of live pulmonary vaccines in different preclinical models. • Pulmonary route of administration is more effective than parenteral vaccination in animal models. • Pulmonary vaccination can work where parenteral immunization fails. • Possible role of IL17 in BCG pulmonary-induced protection. • Good correlation of specific IgA in BAL with protection
