Flu vaccines are typically made using one of two methods: inactivated or live attenuated viruses. Inactivated vaccines contain viruses that have been killed, while live attenuated vaccines use weakened forms of the virus. Manufacturers grow these viruses in chicken eggs or cell cultures, then harvest, purify, and inactivate or weaken them. The final vaccine is formulated with additional components to enhance immune response before being distributed for public use.
