Abstract
Studies of influenza virus type A and B strains isolated during the ep idemics of 1990 and 1991 in Novgorod from sick children previously vac cinated with influenza vaccines demonstrated no influence of postvacci nation immunity on the antigenic properties of the isolates from patie nts with different vaccination history. Under conditions of the concur rent circulation of viruses with previously known and new antigenic st ructures the difference in the immune response consisted in its greate r stimulation of this response to new influenza virus strains.
