Flu shot numbers are plummeting across the country—with less than 25% of Americans vaccinated this year and seniors seeing a sharp drop from 70% to just 59%. Rising costs, lingering vaccine hesitancy from the pandemic, and fewer free clinics are driving the decline.

Experts warn the flu isn’t just sniffles—it can trigger heart attacks and other serious conditions, making annual vaccines especially vital for kids and elders.
