Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify influenza vaccination and influenza-like-illness incidence rates caused by influenza vaccination in the elderly using the senior citizen welfare center. Methods: The subjects of the study were 65-year-old 250 people who used the senior citizen welfare center located in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, Korea. The survey was conducted from May 1 to May 17, 2019, and 242 data were analyzed. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, test, Fisher s exact test and independent t-test using the SPSS WIN 18.0 program. Results: Influenza vaccination rate was 93.4%, and influenza-like-illness incidence rate was 5.4%. Cold suspected respiratory infection was 36.8%, and 92.3% of people with influenza-like-illness were treated in hospital. Also, the average duration of symptoms was 13.08±9.55 days. The effect of influenza vaccination was significantly higher in the group who received the vaccination(p=.036) and the group who did not develop the influenza-like-illness(p=.016). The difference in the incidence of influenza-like-illness was not statistically significant, depending on whether the influenza was immunized. Conclusion: Considering the severity of symptoms and secondary problems due to respiratory infections in the elderly, different strategies should be implemented to prevent and treat influenza and influenza-like-illness.
