We accept that for the flu because we know it changes so fast but we tend to not accept anything like this for a more stable virus. | |

If you look at the wikipedia list of strain recommendations en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…, you'll see that quite often one strain stays for several years - but there are 3 - 4 of them in the composition for each year, and the new may differ in only one of them. | |
