Studies disagree on the association between vaccination and number of chronic diseases 9,10,11,12,13,30 .…”

Influenza Vaccination Coverages among Spanish Children, Adults and Health Care Workers

“…Spanish vaccination-coverage studies have essentially targeted the over-64 age group, and have attained values of 50-70% [10,[14][15][16][17], which are comparable to those reported from other European countries and slightly lower than those reported in the U.S. [1, [18][19][20][21][22].…”

In any case, even if suffering a chronic disease significantly (p < 0.01) increases the probability of being vaccinated for those aged 18-64 years (OR 3.39), the coverage observed among these subjects is still low.…”
