Map data is from 2018/2019 because more recent flu numbers have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
NJ data is not available for the 2018-2019 flu season. However, the average vaccination rate of the two surrounding flu seasons is 32.4%.
How Far Will People Have to Travel for Abortion Access?
During the 2018-2019 flu season, 169 million seasonal flu vaccines were distributed. The vaccine coverage rate for people 6 months and older was 49%. That means more than 169 million people who could have gotten the flu vaccine did not.
The CDC recommends a flu vaccine for everyone 6 months and older, if their health status allows.
The benefits of getting a flu shot are supported by research. A flu shot can keep you from getting sick and reduce risk of severe illness. It can also protect pregnant women, children, and people with chronic conditions.
