Flu Vaccines for Older Adults:
Decoding the Latest Recommendations
Influenza is a serious health risk for Canadians, especially for those 65 and older, who are more likely to get very sick, end up in the hospital, or even face life-threatening complications. Although the flu can be prevented by vaccination, new recommendations have been made by the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) for people in this age group. These changes may affect how provincial vaccination programs and healthcare providers offer flu vaccines to older adults.
To address these changes, we reviewed current evidence and held a discussion with experts to explore the challenges and identify ways to better protect older adults through vaccination.
