Do most Americans across the age spectrum get a flu shot every year?

There are over 280 million people in the US. Various manufacturers make about 80 million doses of flu per year for the American market. Do the math!

Thanks for getting me straightened out there.

The math requires Congressional oversight.

It is already well known that 75% of the susceptible population needs to be immunized to successfully thwart the spread of the disease.

Making enough vaccine for only 1/3 rd of the country is not appropriate policy.
