There is a study from the CDC that shows seniors and young children have the highest rate of hospitalization from flu. 🤢
People with underlying medical conditions, like asthma, heart disease, or chronic lung disease, are more likely to have severe flu cases. Black Americans, Native Americans, and Alaska Natives are also more likely to be hospitalized for flu. 🤒
💉Though these groups are more at risk, severe flu can happen to anyone, especially for people who aren’t vaccinated. In the words of Dr. William Schaffner, one of the study’s co-authors, “The influenza virus, in all of its guises, is a formidable virus that can take a healthy person and put them in the hospital within 48 hours."
