Description

Chen, Gilbert, and Dubé track flu vaccination among Canadian adults across the pandemic years. Using repeated national survey cycles from the 2018-19 season through 2023-24, they compare coverage and vaccination places against the pre-pandemic baseline, broken down by age and health status.

Coverage dips in the 2021-22 season, then returns to pre-pandemic levels for the next two seasons. Adults under sixty-five without chronic conditions stay the least vaccinated throughout. The venue shifts dramatically: pharmacies rise from about a third of vaccinations to well over half, while doctors' offices fall from a third to about a seventh. The authors urge keeping vaccination easy to reach in varied settings.
