New recommendations make it easy to understand who should get vaccinated-everyone six months of age and older. There are no special priority groups and influenza vaccine is still available throughout Utah. "This year's influenza season is much less hectic than last year when H1N1 was so prevalent," says Dr. David Sundwall, Utah Department of Health (UDOH) Executive Director. "Unlike last year, there is only one seasonal influenza vaccine needed this year and it includes the H1N1 strain." Additionally, Utah reports a significant decrease in the number of influenza-associated hospitalizations (IAH) from last year at this time-807 cases in 2009-2010 vs. 21 cases to date in 2010-2011. As a result, health care providers can direct more efforts toward preventing influenza rather than treating it.

Every year, thousands of people are hospitalized and die from complications of influenza infection. Getting vaccinated every year remains the best method of prevention. In addition to encouraging influenza vaccination, health officials want to dispel two of the biggest myths associated with the influenza vaccine. Myth No.l: The influenza vaccine causes influenza (flu). Fact: It doesn't. The particles in the vaccine are inactive and can't transmit the live virus to a person who gets vaccinated or from the vaccinated person to others. Even the particles in the live-virus nasal spray are so weakened, they dont cause the severe symptoms associated with influenza infection. Sometimes, a vaccinated person may experience minor reactions to the vaccine, such as muscle aches or stomach upset, but this isn't the influenza infection and the symptoms will usually last for 1-2 days. Myth #2: Young and healthy people don't need to get vaccinated. Fact: Even young, healthy people can gel seriously ill and die from influenza. The recent H1N1 pandemic affected the younger population more than is typically seen with seasonal influenza. The good news is this group usually responds better to the flu vaccine than older adults. But even if a person doesn't want the vaccine for persona] protection, getting vaccinated can help prevent a person from spreading the flu to others, such as infants who may be too young to be vaccinated and to people with weakened immune systems or older people who don't respond as well to the vaccine. A three-step approach is recommended to fighting influenza: 1) vaccination, 2) everyday preventive actions, such as covering your coughs and sneezes, washing hands, and staying home when sick, and 3) the correct use of antiviral drugs, if your doctor recommends them. If you think you have influenza (abrupt onset of fever, muscle aches and pains, cough and or sore throat), see your physician within 24 hours. Contact your local health department or health care provider, the Immunization Hotline at 1800-275-0659, or check the Flu Vaccination Locator at www.utahflufighters.org to find an influenza vaccination clinic. The mission of the Utah Department of Health is to protect the public's health through preventing avoidable illness, injury, disability and premature death, assuring access to affordable, quality health care, ancf prom^tog healthy lifestyles. |
