Women are twice as likely to suffer a severe reaction to the flu jab as compared to men, a new study has revealed. — AFP
To explore this further, they drew on data from 18 comparative clinical trials of seasonal flu vaccination, involving 34,343 adults, and carried out between 2010 and 2018. They pooled the trial results, looking at potential sex differences by age:18-64 and 65+. The risk of an injection site reaction was higher in women than it was in men for both younger and older participants.
However, the quality of evidence was deemed low for injection site reactions and moderate for systemic reactions, point out the researchers, who acknowledge that gender – the roles, behaviour activities, and attributes associated with men and women – might have influenced outcomes, given that women are more likely to report health issues.
