Race/Ethnicity, Adults 50 to 64 Years
Estimates from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), National Immunization Survey (NIS), and the National 2009 H1N1 Flu Survey (NHFS)

Table 9 summarizes national weighted estimates of influenza vaccination coverage by race/ethnicity for adults 50-64 years, across several recent influenza seasons. Coverage estimates have been previously published for the 2009-10 influenza season and the 2010-11 season, but estimates for 2007-08 and 2008-09 have not been previously published.
Please note: There have been changes in data sources, time periods, and vaccination recommendations across seasons. The 2009-10 influenza season was unique for several reasons: two vaccines and vaccination periods, and the availability of information for more high risk conditions. Detailed methods are available for the 2009-10 influenza season and the 2010-11 season. For 2007-08 and 2008-09 BRFSS adult estimates, the same analytic methods were used as for the 2010-11 season estimates just cited.
Additional estimates for 2009-10 vaccination coverage are available in Table 9-B or by selecting the column heading “2009-10 Seasonal (Trivalent)” in Table 9-A.
