How Many People Die From The Flu Every Year In The US? 23 March 2017 / Category: News Off comments According to the CDC, the flu kills a surprising 3,300 to 49,000 people every year.

But in the United States alone, 36,000 people die and more than 200,000 are hospitalized each year because of the flu. MYTH: You can't spread the flu if you're feeling well. Actually, 20% to 30% of people carrying the influenza virus have no symptoms. MYTH: You don't need to get a flu shot every year. The influenza virus changes (mutates) each year.
