Favorite Answer

only if it's the same strain. Usually it changes every year. They base the flu shot on the virus strain that was most popular the year before. Most of the time a new strain comes a long and the shot doesn't help as well.

Answer 2

As others have mentioned, immunity would be only to one strain.

Unfortunately, influenza mutates a lot. The number of strains is infinite. So full immunity isn't possible. This is why, in the U.S., a new flu vaccine is offered every year and persons most at risk from disease are encouraged to get the shot every year.

Incidentally, the flu vaccine is a bit of a guess. The medical people have to make an estimate of which strains (yes, plural) will be most active in the coming year. Sometimes guess is wrong and the vaccine doesn't do much good.
