Friday, October 21st, 2022 -- 9:07 AM

(Bob Hague, WRN) The Wisconsin Department of Health Services has released its Influenza Vaccine Update and launched a new online flu vaccine data dashboard.

A DHS release says together, the report and data dashboard provide a look at previous and current flu vaccine rates statewide and highlight communities and areas of the state more vulnerable to the seasonal flu. As of October 18, over 613,000 Wisconsinites have received an influenza vaccination for the current season.

This statewide data, including rates by county, age, sex, race, and ethnicity, will be updated on the DHS website weekly throughout the flu season, which varies in duration, but typically spans the fall and winter.
