ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

In October 2017, the National Poll on Healthy Aging surveyed a nationally representative sample of 2,007 adults aged 50-80 years to assess attitudes toward influenza (flu) vaccination policies in long-term care facilities. Support for requiring vaccinations was lowest for visitors. Policy makers can use these findings to develop sustainable vaccination strategies.
