High-dose flu vaccine linked to nearly 55% lower Alzheimer's risk in older adults

A new study from UTHealth Houston analyzed nearly 200,000 adults aged 65 and older and found that those who received a high-dose influenza vaccine had a nearly 55% lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. This finding suggests that a stronger flu shot may offer significantly greater protection against Alzheimer's compared to the standard-dose vaccine, which was previously associated with a 40% risk reduction.
