Influenza Vaccine
Influenza (also called "the flu") is a viral infection. About 10% to 20% of Americans get the flu each year. Some people get very sick. Each year, about 130,000 people go to a hospital with the flu, and 20,000 people die because of the flu and complications.
The flu may cause fever, cough, sore throat, a runny or stuffy nose, headache, muscle aches and tiredness. Some people describe the flu as being like the worst cold of their life. Most people feel better after 1 or 2 weeks. But for some people, the flu leads to serious, even life-threatening, diseases, such as pneumonia. Influenza vaccine (the flu shot) is recommended for people who are more likely to get really sick to protect them from the flu.
Who is at higher risk?
Some people have a higher risk of flu complications, like pneumonia. Children between 6 months and 23 months of age and adults 50 years of age and older are at higher risk. You are also at increased risk if you:
