CDC: Flu Vaccination Coverage Update

CDC’s flu vaccination coverage estimates updated on January 19, 2024, show a drop in flu vaccine uptake among some groups of adults this season, and a continued decline in flu vaccination coverage among pregnant people and children since 2020. Flu vaccination coverage among pregnant people continues to be lower this season compared to recent prior seasons. Flu vaccine coverage for all adults is about 47%, which is similar to coverage among adults at the end of last season.

With flu season ongoing in the U.S., CDC continues to recommend flu vaccination, as well as early antiviral treatment for people with flu symptoms who are very sick (for example, hospitalized) or at higher risk of developing severe illness. Learn more from CDC here.
