Have you had your annual flu vaccination yet? If you answered 'no', it appears you are far from alone. About 540,000 fewer Australians have had a flu vaccination compared to this time last year, reports @abcnews: abc.net.au/news/2024-07-29/a… 1/4

Doctors urge Australians to get vaccinated, as flu season hits its peak

A national survey has found the top reasons people avoid getting an influenza jab are that the flu isn't serious, the vaccine will give them the flu, or the vaccine won't work.

Respiratory diseases physician A/Prof Lou Irving said the RMH was seeing patients with flu in both the Emergency Department and inpatients. "There's clearly a lot of influenza in the community," he said. "The numbers will eventually show that this is a big [flu] season." 3/4
