Comparing uptake of high-dose and standard-dose influenza vaccination at the practice and patient level in Germany
Influenza vaccination coverage rates in the older German population remain far below national targets. However, the proportion of HD vaccinations increased significantly up to 92.4 % in 2023-2024, implying that the preferential recommendation was increasingly followed. Overall, our results indicate high acceptance of HD vaccines among physicians and patients.
