While many elders are already aware of vaccines against COVID-19 and seasonal flu, there is a lack of knowledge of the importance of other vaccines. With the latest guide, Senior Health Care Hub aims to bridge this gap, educating seniors about risks and how to reduce them.
While flu can be rough for anyone, people aged 65 and up have a significantly higher risk of severe complications. According to the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, seniors' naturally weakened immune system means they are more likely to be hospitalized or develop pneumonia. Further, the foundation points out that flu in elders over 65 increases the risk of heart attack by 3-5 times and stroke by 2-3 times in the first two weeks of infection, adding up to making it six times more likely to die from flu.
In addition to influenza, Senior Health Care Hub has researched more unexpected vaccinations seniors should take into consideration. For example, the guide explains that contrary to what many believe, taking a vaccine against HPV (human papillomavirus) is as important for older people as for younger. The guide explains that it's estimated that 90% of adults will catch the virus and that it can cause cancer, pointing out that a vaccine protects against this.
The guide shares insights on how to decide what vaccines are suitable, recommending discussing medical history, special recommendations, and optimal timing with a health care provider. Additionally, Senior Health Care Hub highlights that getting vaccinated is also a way to protect others who might be more vulnerable.
A company spokesperson said: "By considering these vaccines and discussing them with your healthcare provider, you can take charge of your health and ensure a brighter future ahead."
