If it's some form of influenza, would a flu vaccine provide any protection at all?

The flu shot given each year is a "best quess" at what will be the flu outbreak for that year. The shot will not cover generic flu only the one it is designed for. If you get a flu shot and you are exposed/get a strain flu that it is not designed for you get the flu.
