These trivalent vaccines are designed to protect against three specific influenza strains,
- A(H1N1) virus,
- A(H3N2) virus,
- B/Yamagata lineage virus,
- B/Victoria virus.
- Which flu viruses are making people sick prior to the upcoming flu season,
- The extent to which those viruses are spreading prior to the upcoming flu season,
- How well the previous season’s vaccines may protect against those flu viruses, and
- The ability of vaccine viruses to provide cross-protection against a range of related flu viruses of the same type or subtype/lineage.
