In a survey conducted amongst parents in Australia in 2022, almost half of the respondents indicated that they were hesitant to vaccinate their children against the flu because they did not consider it necessary to have a flu vaccine every year. Other leading reasons parents were hesitant to vaccinate their children against the flu included children already having too many vaccines, and the possibility that the vaccine may not work well enough to be worth having.
