Published
The number of people vaccinated against influenza in Romania is much lower than in the same period last year. According to data published by News.ro, the flu vaccination rate is 29% lower than on the same date in 2025. The information shows that many people have not yet been vaccinated this season.
At the same time, the number of flu cases has been relatively low so far. Last week, only 8 new cases of flu were confirmed in laboratories. Thus, the total number of cases this flu season has reached 23.
Specialists recommend vaccination, especially for elderly people, pregnant women, and people with chronic diseases. The vaccine is available in pharmacies and in family doctors' offices, and protection usually develops a few weeks after administration.
For now, there is no official information explaining the reasons for the decline in the number of vaccinations. Authorities will continue to monitor the evolution of influenza in the coming weeks.
