Who needs to get the flu vaccine?

In principle, anyone aged 6 months and above who is willing to receive the flu vaccine and has no contraindications can receive the flu vaccine. Due to the different clinical severity and outcomes of influenza infection in different populations, certain populations should be given priority for flu vaccination. Drawing on the documents of the World Health Organization and the years of application experience of other countries, and in light of my country's national conditions, the following populations are recommended as priority vaccination populations:

Infants and young children aged 2 to 23 months;

Children aged 2-5 years;

Elderly persons aged 60 and above;

Patients with specific chronic diseases: patients with cardiovascular diseases (except simple hypertension), chronic respiratory diseases, liver and kidney dysfunction, blood diseases, nervous system diseases, neuromuscular dysfunction, metabolic diseases (including diabetes), and patients with immunosuppressive diseases or low immune function;

Medical personnel;

Family members and caregivers of infants under 6 months of age.
