I think the data for healthy people getting flu vaccines isn't great either.

They work for the old and sick but don't have much benefit for the young and well.

I was under the impression that shortly before the whole COVID thing, there was talk of not giving flu vaccines to the very old any more because of the way it negatively impacts the immune system, making them more vulnerable.
