Kaplan notes(2006) mentions 50yrs as the cut off, UW 65 years to administer the influenza vaccine. Any help on this plz?

  #2

cut off age is 65 for influenza and pneumococcal....

influenza vaccination is given annually thereafter and pneumococcal single vaccination after the age of 65 is sufficient......


  #3

CDC and CMDT both say 65. and annually thereafter.

  #4

right, thanks guys....quite a bit of doubtful data in Kaplan.

  #5

65 years, they have just corrected it
