Flu Shots for Healthy Adults
Arch Fam Med. 1999;8:501.
Health working adults who received the vaccine had 25% fewer episodes of respiratory illnesses, 43% fewer sick days, and 44% fewer doctor visits than those receiving placebo. The accompanying editorial notes that there was an unusually high attack rate for the influenza in this study, and suggested further study.
