Mechanism of action
The vaccine contains inactivated influenza virus antigens (typically from three or four circulating strains) that trigger both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Upon vaccination, B cells produce strain-specific antibodies that neutralize viral particles, while T cells develop memory responses to provide broader protection. This priming of the adaptive immune system reduces infection risk and severity if exposure to wild-type influenza occurs.
