Epidemiological Study on the Vaccination Coverage of the Population Aged 75 Years and Over in Picardy. According to the Study of 200 Patients Followed by General Practitioners of the Somme in 2016.

Overview

In France, the vaccination coverage of seniors is clearly deficient. It seems to be a cultural specificity, dating back more than 100 years, and which does not exist in Scandinavia, nor in much of the Anglo-Saxon world. Only influenza vaccination is a success for seniors. The high public health council sets the objective of immunization coverage in patients over 65 years of age to 80% whether or not the patient is benefiting from an exonerative ALD. The data collections carried out with the various pension funds objective have a lower immunization coverage with a rate ranging from 48.8 to 64%. Thus any medical consultation should be an opportunity to update the vaccination schedule of adults and the elderly.
