Number of people getting flu shot declining

Did you get your flu shot yet? The Centers For Disease Control and Prevention says fewer adults are getting them.

More than 37% of adults were vaccinated last season, which is a more than 6% drop from the previous season and the lowest rate since 2010.

More than 48 million people ended up with the flu last season, and nearly 80,000 people died from it.

Health officials recommend a flu shot for everyone over the age of 6 months.
