    Document: Influenza is a seasonal, contagious respiratory illness that is mostly mild and self-limited, although occasional severe manifestations may lead to hospitalization and even death. In 2009, there was a worldwide influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 pandemic with an increased propensity to infect the lower respiratory tract and the ability to cause the most serious form of acute respiratory distress syndrome secondary to pneumonia (3). Currently, the virus is seasonal in humans. Traditionally, the influenza vaccine is received by numerous individuals worldwide, particularly those at a high risk of developing influenza-related complications, because it decreases the incidence of the disease and the risk of more serious outcomes (1, 2). The vaccine against the A(H1N1)pdm09 virus was developed in 2009, and its effectiveness and safety are considered to be similar to those of previous vaccines (4). In 2009, monovalent A(H1N1)pdm09 vaccines became available, followed by seasonal influenza vaccines containing the A(H1N1)pdm09-like antigen in 2010.
