Weekly National Flu Vaccination Dashboard logo

The Weekly Influenza (Flu) Vaccination Dashboard is designed to share preliminary weekly flu vaccination data, including coverage estimates, using a variety of data sources including surveys, healthcare claims, and electronic medical records. The Dashboard will be updated regularly throughout each flu season as new data become available. Final estimates for prior flu seasons, including the 2022-23 season, and other flu vaccination data, resources, and publications are available. Please email to share any feedback.

Data updates are scheduled each Friday during 10AM – 11AM ET. Data, visuals, and/or features may be changing and may not match their final state during this time.

The Indian Health Service’s (IHS) Influenza-like Illness Awareness System (IIAS) captures flu vaccination coverage among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) patients who received care in an IHS and in some Tribal or Urban Indian (I/T/U) healthcare facilities.

The health care personnel flu vaccine coverage is captured through the IHS National Immunization Reporting System (NIRS) and includes employees who work in IHS and in some tribal and urban healthcare facilities.

There may be gaps in both the IIAS and NIRS systems since not all I/T/U healthcare facilities report.

Data are available via Indian Health Service.

Prevent Flu

Everyone 6 months and older should get a flu vaccine every season with rare exceptions.

Vaccination is particularly important for people who are at higher risk of serious complications from influenza.

You can get a COVID-19 vaccine and a flu vaccine at the same time.
