The good news is that this year's flu vaccine did its job and protected people across all age-groups.. About 85% of adults who were hospitalized with flu had chronic underlying conditions, such as obesity (in 43%), metabolic disorders (33%), or cardiovascular disease (29%), the CDC reported.
Researchers believe that annual flu shots help keep T cells active and multiplying. When you get the flu, T cells attack the parts of the flu virus that make the flu deadly, so you end up with a milder case. The study focused on seniors because cell-mediated immunity gets impaired in older people; for them, getting a flu shot every year helps keep that part of the immune system tuned up. My recommendation is to get an annual flu shot regardless of its effectiveness. Now, we have evidence that getting one every year has added benefit to picking and choosing which flu shots to get. I also recommend getting a flu shot early in the season because it takes two weeks for your immune system to develop antibodies against the flu viruses. Researchers are working on vaccines that will protect people for years, and avoid the annual guess work.
