Not familar with this term, but I suspect it would involve formulating a vaccine with all the known viral H (hemaglutanin) proteins in it,
such that those immunize would have antibodies that would be (cross)
reactive with any arising strain of influenza. The idea is that it
wouldn't necessarily keep you from getting influenza (should one arise
with mutations in it), but it would probably lessen the severity of the
disease. The viral H protein is the principal target of vaccination
because it is what the virus uses to bind to cells that are to be
infected. A "neutralizing" antibody binds to the H protein, thus
blocking the virus' ability to bind to the cell, thus protecting the
cell (and the person) from infection.
