In summary: high-dose and adjuvanted flu vaccines provide substantially better protection for older adults. This isn't a small improvement. We're talking about real differences that translate directly to fewer hospitalizations and deaths. Yet many older adults still get standard-dose vaccines.

When we pooled all studies of older adults, overall effectiveness was just 42%. Why? Most studies used standard-dose vaccines. We could potentially prevent thousands more hospitalizations just by using the enhanced vaccines that already exist.
