Abstract
Influenza vaccination is the most strategically justifiable way to protect against influenza which allows toprevent influenza infection and its serious complications, as well as mitigate the impact of influenza epidemics. The main challenge in the fight against influenza is that influenza vaccine needs to be renewed annually due to year-to-year variability of influenza viruses. In recent years, the idea of a single vaccine against all A subtypes of the influenza virus has been actively studied.
