This year's flu vaccine guards against new strains

In this Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2011 photo, George Eberhardt, 107, of Chester, NJ. is given his annual flu shot by nurse Bettie Donnelly in Mendham, N.J. Babies and toddlers were more likely to get the flu vaccine last year than people over 65. Both groups are more vulnerable to flu than other age groups. Government data released Thursday, Sept. 27, 2012 also showed a wide range of vaccine protection across the country. (AP Photo/Mel Evans) Time to get your flu vaccine — and a surprising new report shows babies and toddlers seem to be getting protected better than the rest of us.
