Fighting the Flu

The Benefits of Flu Vaccination 2019-2020 Flu Season: Flu Burden Averted from Vaccination

During the 2019-2020 season, CDC estimates flu caused: • 38 million flu illnesses. • 400,000 flu hospitalizations. • 22,000 flu deaths. • It could have been even worse without flu vaccines. • Nearly 52% of the U.S. population 6 months and older got a flu vaccine during the 2019-2020 flu season, and this prevented an estimated: • 7.5 million flu illnesses, more than the combined population of Kentucky and Kansas. • 105,000 flu hospitalizations, enough people to fill Michigan Stadium at the University of Michigan. • 6,300 flu deaths, equivalent to saving about 17 lives per day over the course of a year.

Imagine the impact if more Americans chose to get a flu vaccine. Many more flu illnesses, flu hospitalizations, and flu deaths could be prevented.

The estimates for the 2019-2020 influenza season are preliminary pending additional data from the season.
