-
The hemagglutinins are the factors that are supposed to engender antibodies to render you immune to influenza.
-
Both hemagglutinins and neuraminidases are on the surface of the virus and end up as toxic molecules in the split virus, the subvirion.
-
In addition to the "jet-set" hemagglutinins, the vaccine also contains the enzyme neuraminidase.
-
It follows then that the virus hemagglutinins in the vaccine also lose their antigenicity because of N-neuraminidase, and consequently those who are vaccinated cannot form antibodies against the hemagglutinins!
