not just for one strain lilacben. This from the NHS website
The flu jab for 2014/15
Each year, the viruses that are most likely to cause flu are identified in advance and vaccines are made to match them as closely as possible. The vaccines are recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO).
The 2014/15 vaccine protects against three types of flu virus. This year’s flu jab protects against:
H1N1 – the strain of flu that caused the swine flu pandemic in 2009
H3N2 – a strain of flu that can infect birds and mammals and was active in 2011
B/Massachusetts/2 – a strain of flu that was active in 2012

Its killed vaccine that gets injected. The bugs can't multiply in you and give you flu because they are dead but the dead bugs stimulate your immune system to produce antibodies.
