"Estimates of flu vaccination coverage among adults shows 37.1 percent of Americans age 18 and older received a flu shot last season, down 6.2 percent from the previous season.
 
Vaccine coverage for the 2017-18 flu season — when more than 80,000 people died from flu in the U.S. and 900,000 were hospitalized — was the lowest in seven flu seasons, said the CDC."
