Who's getting a flu shot and what vaccine is surrounded by the syringe?

Curious, because I've never had one.
The vaccine that you receive is an avirulent (non-active or killed) form of the flu virus that be developed based on the flu virus that are most prevalent for that year. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) analyzes the different flu viruses and picks the consensus sequence (the one that occur most often) for the vaccine so that will statistically provide the best protection from differing flu strains.
Got one yesterday. Its the magazine with the kill flu virus.
