The overall joint prevalence was 8.5% (95% CI, 8.0-9.0). Prevalence was lower among older persons (vs younger); Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black persons (vs non-Hispanic White); current and former smokers (vs never smokers); postpartum women (vs neither pregnant nor postpartum); and those with a history of coronary heart disease, hypertension, stroke, diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (vs not having those respective condition). In addition to recommending annual vaccination, primary care providers might encourage sufficient sleep and adequate physical activity-especially among patients who have increased risk for influenza complications and are less likely to achieve these behaviors.
