The number of deaths from influenza in Iran has reached 101

It has been reported that the number of flu deaths in Iran has reached 101, and many have recently died among unvaccinated individuals.

According to Hussein Kermanpour, head of the Iranian Ministry of Health's information center, the majority of those who died from the flu were unvaccinated individuals. According to Sameh Najafabodi, the risk of death from influenza is higher than from coronavirus, and the lack of flu vaccines and their high cost are one of the main reasons for reducing this risk.

Despite the high demand for vaccines in Iran, their cost and the lack of an insurance system are causing major problems in vaccinating the population. It is also noted that, according to the state's written data, one of the main reasons for the widespread occurrence of influenza is the existing problems.
