I think it is even lower in Spain.
There are lots of stats about how effective flu shots are supposed to be, but I am always a bit weary of those. The shots available are usually for a very reduced range of virus sub-types, I think, and you can very well get the shot and then get one of the flus that was not covered :-) So if you are at risk then it is good to take it, I guess, but I am not very optimistic regarding results.
