This also covers the resultant outcome from the appropriate use of the intervention.	M32	Percent of seniors age 65 and older in the state receiving a seasonal flu vaccination	The measure focuses on adults aged 65+ who have had an influenza vaccination within the past year. This measure is used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and states to monitor health status and is an important measure of achievement of immunization program objectives. The measure is a pre-event indicator of the capacity of the state's public and private immunization infrastructure needed to respond to an emerging vaccine controllable disease.	CDC FluVaxView	Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Immunization Survey (NIS) and the Behavioral Risk Surveillance System (BRFSS), FluVaxView State, Regional, and National Vaccination Report	2013—2018	Vaccine effectiveness varies each year as a function of the accuracy in predicting the influenza strains covered by each year's vaccine. As a result, expected influenza protection and reduced demand on healthcare facilities may be marginal in the event of a major disaster.
