ABSTRACT:
An influenza vaccine is disclosed which comprises, as an active ingredient, a recombinant, antigenically hydridized virus which has a hemagglutinin antigen that has substantially no cross-reactivity with those influenza viruses against which the vaccine is to be effective and a neuraminidase antigen which has substantial cross-reactivity with the influenza viruses against which the vaccine is to be effective. The neuraminidase can be derived from a virus antigenically representative of the contemporary or prevalent influenza virus of interest, e.g., H3N3, the Hong Kong variant of influenza, while the hemagglutinin antigen, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, is obtained from A-1/equine virus or from other influenza viruses of other antigenic subtypes, such as HON1 or H1N1.
