Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Post

A new CDC study looking at 15,000 children over a 5-year period found that flu vaccination reduced the risk of flu-associated hospitalization for children by an estimated 50%.  Children 6 months and older should receive a yearly flu vaccine to help protect against severe flu illness that can result in emergency department visits or hospitalizations. Read the full JAMA study here: https://bit.ly/4gFspqo

Text overlay reads “A new CDC study finds flu vaccination reduced children’s risk of flu-related hospital visits by an estimated 50%.” In the bottom left corner is a text box that reads “cdc.gov/flu/prevention.” The CDC logo is in the bottom right corner.

Thank you for sharing the importance of flu vaccines 💜
