What injection is recommended for healthcare workers, elderly, and patients with chronic lung disease?

Shingles vaccine
Eurocine
Influenza
Steroid

Explanation

Answer: C - Healthcare workers, elderly and patients with chronic lung disease should receive an annual influenza vaccine.

Vaccines play a big role in public health preventative medicine. Elderly patients and patients with chronic lung disease are more susceptible to influenza, so a vaccination is recommended. Healthcare workers should also receive the vaccination as they are in contact with so many patients with decreased immunity.
