We’ve had another successful flu vaccination campaign this year, preparing our corporate clients for what turned out to be a country-wide influenza epidemic.
The severity for each flu season is classified by the proportion of the population admitted to the ICU and the number of pneumonia or influenza related deaths recorded nationwide.
Influenza is a common and acute respiratory illness that is estimated to cause 1,400 deaths, 18,000 hospitalisations, and over 300,000 general practice consultations in Australia each season.
It happens every flu season: Workplace sickie rates rise as the temperature falls. Suddenly, your temp agency consultant is your new bestie.
The choice looks simple enough: the familiar 3-strain ‘trivalent’ influenza vaccine or the new 4-strain quadrivalent version? Learn the difference.
