That's a record outside of pandemic flu years.

83% of the pediatric deaths were among unvaccinated children. This was preventable. The flu vaccine reduces the risk of hospitalization and death.

Half the children had no pre-existing conditions.

Flu vaccination rates among children have been lower since the pandemic.
