If I recall correctly, they chose not to include H2N3 in the vaccine this year, I’d be very curious to know if that is the strain going around this year. It is H3N2, and it is included in the current vaccine. The vaccine also includes H1N1 and a Victoria type influenza B. If it is a quadrivalent vaccine, it also includes a Yamagata type influenza B.
I received a quadrivalent vaccine produced in cells this year. No chicken embryos died this year to make my flu vaccine!

Those poor, little...! I'll spare you the guilt trip on that one. Don't want to spark a riot around here. ;-)
