Roughly One In Two Americans Will Get Flu Shots
(Undated) -- The arrival of fall also marks the start of flu season. Just over half of those taking part in a new Rasmussen Reports poll say they plan to get inoculated against the bug, while 42-percent won't be taking the injection. In light of the H1N1 outbreak last year, federal health officials are urging Americans to get a flu shot. But few people feel a sense of urgency in the matter. Only 15-percent are concerned about health care facilities running out of the vaccine if an epidemic were to occur. More than 40-percent believe the medical professionals in their communities will be prepared if there's a major flu outbreak this winter, compared to 20-percent who don't think the doctors in their area would be able to handle such a crisis. Just over a third of those polled aren't sure just how well the medical community could address the situation. |
