Dennis, AVIR has no future. As a virologist, I know the live attenuated flu vaccine is just wast time and money due to virus antigenic changing continuously. So each live attnuated flu vaccine could only be useful for few years and need to develope new attenuated vaccine virus continuously although the nosal delivery is very good idead. The critical point is that no one in the world could develope save attenuated virus vaccines with same method repeatly. Therefore, each new live vaccine must pass independent clinical trials, which will cost a lot of money and time to do so. No live attenuated flu vaccine would be ready for the epidemic flu. But dead flu virus vaccines are using and developing to be deliveried orally. The same technique could produce save dead virus vaccine easyly.

You need do your own research to investigate the potential future of AVIR but you need to distiguish the drug and vaccine clearly. A drug passed third phase clinical trial could be used for decades.

Good luck!
