a Defined as receiving ≥1 dose of any influenza vaccine ≥14 days before illness onset. A total of 178 participants who received the vaccine <13 days before illness onset were excluded from the vaccine effectiveness analyses (Figure 1).

b The χ2 statistic was used to assess differences between the numbers of persons vaccinated and unvaccinated, with respect to the distributions of site, age group, sex, race/ethnicity, presence of any high-risk condition, interval from illness onset to enrollment, general health status, self or household exposure to smoke, number of children ages <12 years in the household, and real-time polymerase chain reaction–confirmed influenza virus infection. The Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test was used to assess differences with respect to the distribution of the current health assessment. A P value of <.05 is statistically significant.

c Data were missing for 10 enrollees.

d Defined as a body mass index of ≥40, calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the height in meters squared. Data were missing for 312 enrollees.

e Data were missing for 4 enrollees.

f Data were missing for 3 enrollees.

g Possible values range from 1 (the worst) to 100 (the best). Data were missing for 6 enrollees.

h Confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction.
