Do we have vaccine against Adenovirus 36?
According to Adenovirus 36 and Obesity: An Overview:

Pasarica et al. [34] showed that rats infected with Adv36 had an increase of weight, insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake. Furthermore, Adv36 infected non-human primates [33], had increase of weight and anti-Adv36 antibodies, but a decrease of total cholesterol. Similar results were obtained in marmosets and a decrease of total cholesterol was found in hamsters [36].
[...]
In vitro, Adv36 induced adipogenic accumulation commitment, differentiation of adipocytes and increases the cellular glucose uptake [27,44].

This suggests to me that Adenovirus 36 is a public health issue. Do we have a FDA approved vaccines to protect against it?
