1. A method for immunizing a mammalian subject, comprising,
a) providing
i) a first RSV experienced mammalian subject containing Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) neutralizing antibodies, and
ii) a first composition comprising recombinant chimeric Newcastle Disease virus-like particles (ND VLPs) that contain
1) stabilized pre-fusion RSV F protein ectodomain comprising SEQ ID NO:06, and
2) RSV G ectodomain protein, and
b) administering an immunologically effective amount of the first composition to the first RSV experienced mammalian subject to produce a first immunized mammalian subject, wherein said administering is under conditions that increase the level of the RSV neutralizing antibodies in said first immunized mammalian subject.
