🆕 It’s Not Too Late to #GetVaccinated to Help #FightFlu 'The best time to plant a tree is 30 years ago. The second-best time is now.' You can still benefit from a flu vaccine throughout the season. ow.ly/cXnJ50Ui5Po via #NFID Blog

206 children died from flu complications in the U.S. last season, the most on record for a non-pandemic season. Most were unvaccinated. Flu vaccination rates among children in the U.S. have been declining since 2019. What accounts for this decline, and what can be done? #FluChat

We have more rapid flu testing options now, which can help in a regular flu season or detect an unusual outbreak. What is the current role of flu diagnostics, and how could access be improved? #FluChat

The U.S. is experiencing a major H5N1 avian influenza outbreak among various animal species in every state. It has affected a small number of people so far. But a flu virus shift can turn it into a flu pandemic. What should we do to be better prepared for pandemic flu? #FluChat

The Coalition recently hosted its annual Spring Hill Day focused on the need for robust federal funding to fight seasonal and pandemic flu. The Coalition met with Members of Congress from both parties to discuss how investments in flu preparedness protect American public health.
