English term or phrase: vaccines
Är det flera vaccin eller vacciner?

Swedish translation:vaccin
Explanation:
Båda är lika korrekta. NE:s ordlista anger som plural "vaccin, äv. vacciner". Även innebär att formen utan ändelse skulle vara mer bruklig. En grov Google-jämförelse visar dock att "vacciner" verkar något vanligare.
