Seasonal vaccination rates in Connecticut declined this year compared to the same time last year, according to the Department of Public Health (DPH). Statewide, slightly more than a million people are vaccinated against the flu – a 6% drop. For COVID-19, about 300,000 vaccine doses were administered this season, a decline of 28.5%.
Now, the state’s top public health official is urging people to take action to boost those numbers.
