As of November 10, 2024, about 3 in 10 nursing home residents received a 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine. At facilities that elected to report, more than half of residents received a flu vaccine and about one in six received a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine.
Among U.S. adults 18 and older, an estimated 35% have received flu vaccines, and nearly 18% have received COVID-19 vaccines for the 2024–25 respiratory virus season.
Estimated trends in infection that adjust for reporting delays detected increases in COVID-19 spread across the United States before it appeared in surveillance data, providing an early warning of rising cases in May.
Firearm injury emergency department visit rates (per 100,000 ED visits) increased from 2018 to 2019, and again from 2019 to 2020. Since their 2020 peak, rates have decreased each year but remain 13.5% higher than in 2019.
