Flu vaccination falling in high-risk adult patients
This cohort needs to be higher on GPs' radars, says expert
Flu vaccine coverage has failed to improve among adult patients with medical risk factors, despite the government widening the free program nine years ago.
Overall, coverage has trended downwards from an estimated 71% among at-risk 18-64-year-olds in 2009 to 66% in 2014, according to the first report drawing on MedicineInsight data from more than 350 general practices.
