  • Description: Influenza is a disease with a major impact on public health due to epidemic and pandemic developments, but also through severe forms of illness that frequently cause complications and deaths in people at high risk. But flu is also a disease that ”costs” the sick individual and the community in which he lives and works. An important step in controlling influenza in children would be the vaccination of small children in the community, a measure that can be sustained by reducing spending on illness, complications and admissions.
