Oct. 21, 2024 -- Ron Saritzky, 70, wasted no time as he walked into the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Panorama City, CA, near Los Angeles. With a bright-blue table and “Be protected” banner greeting him, he headed straight for his flu and updated COVID vaccines.Minutes later, a nurse had injected both into his left arm, just as he’d requested.

2024年10月21日，70岁的罗恩·萨里茨基（RonSaritzky）走进洛杉矶附近加利福尼亚州全景城的凯撒永久医疗中心（KaiserPermanente Medical Center）。他拿着一张明亮的蓝色桌子和“受保护”的横幅向他致意，径直走向他的流感和更新的新型冠状病毒疫苗。几分钟后，一名护士按照他的要求，将两个针头都注入他的左臂。

“It’s super great,” Saritzky said, appreciating the convenience for walk-ins like him.Outside, at another vaccination table near the weekly farmer’s market, another nurse offered Rafael Orellana, 49, a flu shot. He sat right down. “We need it,” he said, making it clear he never skips his flu vaccine. Despite their enthusiasm, Saritzky and Orellana are in the minority.

。外面，在每周农贸市场附近的另一张疫苗接种台上，另一位护士为49岁的拉斐尔·奥雷拉纳（RafaelOrellana）注射了流感疫苗。他坐了下来。“我们需要它，”他说，并明确表示他从未放弃接种流感疫苗。尽管热情高涨，萨里茨基和奥雷利亚纳仍处于少数。

Surveys find that vaccine fatigue is rampant for both flu and COVID, with many delaying or skipping the shots. The latest trends bear that out: Only about 22% of adults have received a flu shot so far this year, while 12% have gotten the updated COVID vaccine, according to the CDC.   People say vaccinations are a good idea, but words don’t always translate to action.

调查发现，流感和新型冠状病毒的疫苗疲劳都很严重，许多人推迟或跳过了疫苗接种。最新趋势证明了这一点：据疾病预防控制中心（CDC）统计，今年迄今为止，只有约22%的成年人接种了流感疫苗，而12%的成年人接种了最新的新型冠状病毒疫苗。人们说接种疫苗是个好主意，但言语并不总是能转化为行动。

In a survey from the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, two-thirds of people said getting a flu shot is a good idea -- yet 45% didn’t plan to get it or were unsure. Just 26% planned to update their COVID vaccine as the CDC recommends.   Fighting Vaccine Fatigue Acceptance of the flu vaccine has always been ho-hum, as statistics suggest and doctors confirm.

美国国家传染病基金会（National Foundation for Infectious Diseases）的一项调查显示，三分之二的人表示接种流感疫苗是个好主意，但有45%的人没有接种计划或不确定。只有26%的人计划按照疾病预防控制中心的建议更新新型冠状病毒疫苗。正如统计数字和医生证实的那样，对抗疫苗疲劳流感疫苗的接受一直是一片空白。

For the 2023 to 2024 flu season, just 45% of U.S. adults and 55% of children 17 and under got the flu shot. Vaccination programs like Kaiser’s, which started in 2010, try to fight that ambivalence with strategies that focus on convenience. Besides the vaccination tables at the Panorama City facility and at many of the organization’s oth.

在2023年至2024年的流感季节，只有45%的美国成年人和55%的17岁及以下儿童接种了流感疫苗。像2010年开始的凯撒（Kaiser）这样的疫苗接种计划，试图通过注重便利性的策略来消除这种矛盾心理。除了全景城市设施和该组织的许多oth的疫苗接种表之外。
